steps to bordersBrowse through the galleries of new and antique quilt borders, backings, and bindings. Select from the myriad of choices and practice projects to help you master the ABC's of everything from appliqué to borders with curves. You'll find it al here with helpful tips along they way—

  • using triangles to repeat a patchwork design
  • creating appliqué borders for dimension
  • adding depth with specialty fabrics using mitered corners
  • borrowing irregular borders from an antique quilt
  • placing simple blocks in corners or for an all-around frame
  • bordering with rectangles used as piano keys
  • featuring gentle curves and scallops for a graceful finish
  • learning the techniques for most-often-used bindings
  • trying distinctive edgings with step-by-step photos to guide you

To learn six classic border treatments including appliqués, choose the impressive quilt Working My Way Around, or start small with projects ranging from wall hangings to table toppers.

Clearly written, easy-to-understand, illustrated in full-color with complete instructions, diagrams and step-by-step photos, this book will be one of the most useful reference books in your quilting library.

Piecing the patchwork top is only the beginning. Adding the perfect border, backing, and binding to complete the quilt will make it uniquely yours—from start to finish!
