Question Grain and stay stitching

I've made garments and am familiar with the concept of staystitching an edge to prevent a piece of fabric from distorting or stretching. Does anyone know if doing this on a quilt border strip will prevent the edge from stretching or becoming wavy? I've just done it on some borders I cut on the crosswise grain and I'm planning on cutting them to the exact size I need but would like any info as sometimes I don't measure them and just cut them off at the edges. Thanks, and Happy Saturday!
