That works if you're quilting from the front of the machine, but if you're doing a panto you aren't even looking at the quilt top, so the flange can easily get flipped.

A 1/4th inch border is the easiest to put on. I cut a strip 3/4 of an inch. Sew on the first side, then run your quarter inch foot right against the last sewing and you have the perfect 1/4 inch line there. I put an orange strip like that on a quilt with black background fabric this spring. Turned out fantastically.
