Question about quilt borders ...
I'm making a king size quilt for my parent's anniversary. The last border I need to put on is a 10" border. I'm considering adding this border to only the sides and bottom of the quilt, so that when the quilt is on the bed, it won't be too long on the top. As you can see in the picture, the main part of the quilt (where the red stars and squares on point are) will fit perfectly on the top of the bed with the borders draping down. If I add the border to the top, there will be extra there, and they'll likely need to tuck the fabric down along the mattress, or tuck it under ... Does anyone else do this? Should I just put the border on all sides? Thanks for your advice : )
