I haven't read the whole thread yet, but while the thought is still with me :lol:, I'll share what one quilt's directions had me to do for a pieced border. Use strips WOF) in all the fabrics of the series as used in the quilt. Sew them together to form a piece of fabric (say, 12 or 18 inches wide). When that piece of fabric is formed, slice it in strips the width desired and piece the ends until the desired length is reached. Is that clear as mud?
Clear as a bell, Gail - I love pieced bindings and this is a great idea!
