I use contrasting threads that coordinate with the quilt, or you can use the same color thread. The buttons also add a little weight so the quilt hangs well.

Here's an example of a bound border with seed bead detail.

If you google how to face a quilt there are some good tutorials. Here's a link to one with pictures. http://thesillyboodilly.blogspot.com...y-to-face.html
