Border help again!
Prism99 thank you so much for the Craftsy link for the braid border. Now, braid is done. It is 9.5 inches wide. My quilt top is 74X74. I need to add a white border in between the 2. Is there a rule of how wide it should be with that wide of outer border? The braid is made with 2.5 inch strips. Should I do the white inner border 2.5 inches too or Wider? I have plenty of material and I am aiming for a king size quilt. I just want to do what looks pleasing to the eye. Thank you!

I make them the size that looks good to me. I just put fabric under the border exposing the amounts I'm interested in. Hope this helps.

Is there any way you could post a pic?

Just make it as wide as you need it to be.

I agree with Ariannaquilts - experiment with a couple of different widths for the inner border and see what looks best to you. Just lay them out - you don't need to sew anything at this stage. You are aiming for a king size quilt so keep that in mind.

If it is pure white, that will catch your eye and pull your eye to it. I'd like to see a pic. Are you thinking of the fiberache?? series of numbers?
