Hi and welcome! Do you mean on the binding? Or on long borders of single fabrics?

Keep asking the questions, because likely someone here will have the answer that is perfect for you!

Hi and greetings from CA.

Why don't you post a new thread in the Main section? Not everyone checks the Introductions all the time. I'm sure someone will have a tutorial or a great idea to help you on your way.

I did an attic window quilt once and it gave me so much practice with miters that I can do them in my sleep. Some of the early blocks looked more like windows from an old barn - lol.
