You keep amazing me with all the valuable information that you share in your tutorials. This tutorial included math for borders, how to stack your fabric to cut a couple layers at once, and the coolest one is how to sew the borders off of the stacked cut fabric. Thank you Donna 🧵🪡🌸
Just a fun, beautiful quilt that exudes happiness and energy. Love it! Thank you for that perfectly clear lesson. With every video I watch, I feel inside that I am going to be a real quilter. In my mind, I understand how your fabric pieces come together to make a quilt that will be cherished by the recipient. Thank you for leading the way, and in the process pulling back the curtain to show how your magic happens. Donna you are a truly multitalented artist with a heart of gold. 💖🤗🥇🙋♀️
After watching your tutorials and listening to your repeated instructions, I THINK I am ready to give quilting a try! You break the process down to " reasonable " steps that have given me the confidence I need to get one started. Thanks for all you professional tips.
Making sure your quilt is squared up and your border strips are cut straight really helps with rippling or waviness too. Thanks for sharing with us your amazing skills.
I've never tried adding borders this way. It's quite different, but I think it'll work well on small quilts. Not sure about large quilts, 'cos they're so difficult to keep everything straight. This is another FABULOUS tutorial. Thanks, Donna!
Your border method works great and fun too. So nice to sit at machine and sew instead of getting up and down to cut and press. No ruffles or misshapen edges. Thanks again
So much great information here for figuring the math part and even showing us such an easy method to stitch the border strips together. Your tutorials are very well done and have helped me so much! Thank you!
Thank you so much for this video. Before I watched this about 20 times, I'd never done a border on my quilts. Now, I'm hooked & they are perfect! I don't even do the math. I just join up a bunch of strips w/ straight seams vs bias like I do for my bindings. Then I start adding them by side. Love your videos! Someday, I will drive down to Oregon & visit your store. Would be an honor to meet you. Thanks again for this one in particular!
I am certainly glad I discovered your tutorials - your style is so clear and helpful. I make a lot of quilts for charity and often use panels. I put borders on a single picture panel and often have trouble with it distorting - I am hoping your method will solve that. However, I also used multi-picture panels and re-frame each picture with borders and then the whole quilt. I would be interested in a tutorial on framing individual blocks (or pictures) into an attic window arrangement as they are really effective. And then I would love to see how you would quilt a single panel or various picture panels. Sorry for rambling on so long. Thanks again - I really look forward to your tutorials and living in Australia it's very generous of you to make them widely available.
Thanks Donna. Wonderful instructions for calculating fabric. The quilt is lovely. I.like the pattern and color choices. Thank you so much for helping us newbies out here! Anna from Manitoba
I was never any good at math , nobody told me math was involved in quilting !! 😢 but the way you explain & demo it...makes it so easy ! Thank you much for making my sewing easy 🌝🌝🌝☉☉☉☉
I am a longarmer, and routinely see borders with issues. How to handle incorrectly applied border is a common discussion. I agree with what you have done up to application. Not measuring at least three places across, taking an average, and cutting opposite side borders the same length seems to be the most common practice contributing to wavy borders. (Cutting borders to a length before adding just because the pattern says a length is also problematic as the borders can be too short for actual pieced product!) Cutting opposite sides the same also lets a quilted see if there are issues with the center of the quilt. The borders must fit the quilt and help it be square. Unfortunately, not everyone is as precise a pieced as you seem to be! Your application method is great IF the quilt is square and IF the pieces doesn’t stretch as she sews.
Bookmarked this video and will refer to it often. I have been doing my borders the old school way (measure in 3 places, etc.) and hating it. I trust your method and love your clarity! I have learned so much from you. Thank you for doing these instructional videos.
Donna ty for sharing such a beautiful quilt pattern.....I will be making this one ...but will add an extra row....I have tried your way of cutting...I can't believe how much more accurate my pieces come out ....its like someone turned on the lights....I have learned so much ty...hugs from Canada eh
Brilliant tutorial. Being in Australia we use metric but being older I remember inches so it’s not to bad. Learnt so much from this tutorial Donna. Thank you.
Thank you. I have always seen the instructions, measure the center of the quilt, (or both sides and center and take the avg) and cut the border to THAT measurement and then force the border to fit that. Supposedly that forces the quilt to be square. But, that always caused my quilt top to distort, even if the difference between center and sides is only 1/8th. I did not do it that way, because it distorts what was a nice flat top, but I always felt secretly guilty for "not doing it the right way". You are the first professional quilter that I have seen that does it this way. Thank you for showing that in an otherwise fairly square top, that attaching borders to "fit" the side measurements works!
I so enjoy your tutorials and look forward to what you have next. I like the way you calculated the borders. I've never done it that way before but it looks like I'll do it on my next quilt! I've learned a few things from your tutorials that has been a big help
Great tutorial as usual, you are so good at them and each time I gain more knowledge. This quilt measuring is new to me and even tho I can see you explained the measuring part well my brain failed to completely understand. I would love you to do a tutorial on fabric measuring and best ways to fold fabrics to get most from them. Also quilts backing, and quilting on a home machine without a long arm. Thank you so much for all your sharing of videos they are amoung the best on RUclips 😀
So glad that I found your site.Your tutorials are so easy to follow. I have learned so much from you & your partner in crime. My crime is in buying too much fabric & your shop has so many beautiful fabric to give so many ideas....wonderfully exciting & thank you......
Greetings Donna! it's Lucky from Jamaica. I've try your tutorial on your border, and it's works beautifully I love it, it's very neat and I appreciate all that you have been teaching, blessings to you sis
Great tutorial! I was also taught to put borders on the sides then top and bottom. Reading the remarks I can see that it must be just a matter of preference? Thank you for all your tutorials! Very fun to watch and try new streamlined methods!! Keep them coming!
Those of us with smart phones have another option for figuring out borders! We can download the FREE Robert Kaufman (RK) Quilting Calculators app. You just enter the dimensions of your quilt top and the finished width you'd like for each border (the app can accommodate up to 4 borders!), and the app will automatically add seam allowances and tell you how much yardage you need for each border AND how many strips of each border fabric you need to cut. The app does a lot more than this, too, including calculating batting and backing, binding, and yardage from pieces, among other things. I've relied on this app for years and it really is the "quilters little helper."
Thanks for a great tutorial,I am learning so much from you,I haven't made anything yet,but am watching all your videos and looking forward to trying my first quilt!Thanks for putting this all out there for us,it is so appreciated.
This was a great video! Can you please do one on measuring and attaching the backing, especially if you have to piece a backing together? I love all your videos!
I didn't finger press until I watched your tutorials. I wasn't doing it right but after watching you diligently finger press I copied your process and now I love to finger press. I can get through whole blocks now without stopping to iron. You have taught me so much. My question today is, do you have padding on your ironing surface or is it a hard surface? Do you feel a hard surface is needed? I guess that is 2 questions. Thanks again to your whole team
Another great video Donna. I am mathematically challenged so calculating all the measurements etc doesn't come naturally but you just do it so fast 😧😧. I have a spreadsheet set up so i feed the numbers in and print the result. That was a neat trick when you had the first border stacked just before sewing. Looking forward to the next video as you take the time to explain the why and how and don't presume everyone is an expert quilter.
Hi Donna I'm just starting to do some quilts I have learned so much from you watching this video made me think I need to start trying to put my quilt together LOL do you have a video on how to do the binding and the backing I have made 3 tops but not sure how to get them compleated thank you lots your so good
The only thing I would change is adding 1/2" to your calculated lengths for the top-and-bottom borders (in your example, the 43" should be 43.5", the 46" should be 46.5", and the 55" should be 55.5"). The reason is, you need to add the FINISHED widths PLUS 1/2", because you need to account for the 1/4" seam allowances on the outside edges. (Of course, this arithmetic is more important to get accurate if you cut your borders to exact lengths and then match the sides up, sew those on, and then match the top and bottom and sew those on -- vs. your method. Yours looks like it will work too, if all sides of the quilt are even.). Great video, thanks Donna! ~Diana from Toronto
Do you always just go around the quilt with the borders? I was taught to do both the long sides first and then the top and bottom. Your way seems to be a lot easier. I really enjoy all your tutorials and learning new techniques and can't wait to try this one.
I done it both ways, and I find less distortion doing first long edge, second long edge and then the shorter edges. If I'm doing a keystone, I do it on the short edges.
I was also taught to do side, side, top, and bottom, but on most printed borders it doesn't make any difference to the look or the flatness. When I use a solid, light colored border then I would be more mindful of the order. I see lots of quilts with bias seams on the borders and that is just a manner of preference - use whichever method you like best.
great video! Robert Kaufman has a great app on Google play for borders and pieces you might want to download. I love the black and white quilt you made. Excellent use of color. For those that want to skip the math (actually it's arithmetic), get an app!
Yes, we use Robert Kaufman's app regularly with customers in our retail store. As an old quilter (with old eyes!) I am pretty set in my ways., but their app and website are awesome!
You didn't join your seams with a bias seam? I'm assuming you did that because your fabric has a pattern to it and won't be so noticed. Also, using the lengthwise cut for fabric strips gives no stretch, so is a better choice than using the cross-wise grain I understand.
I've only recently found your tutorials and website and I'm so glad I have. You make everything look so easy and it makes me want to jump in and try some of these things. Can you tell me where you measured on your quilt to get the starting measurements?
I just measured across the middle both ways. It was just a rough measuring - it doesn't have to be exact - just close enough so I can figure out the border pieces.
Love your tips and tricks and your concise explanations. I use the app called RK QUILTCALC for measurements. This app does all the calculations for borders, backing. Batting etc. it’s great!
what about the seam allowances? You need to recognize that, even though almost insignificant, because, if someone's addition comes out too close to the length of the WOF x X, there won't be enough - potentially.
what do you do if you dont have the space to lay out your quilt flat to measure for your border length? I currently lay my quilt tops between my cutting and ironing tables,(the two combined are approximately 95 inches long but only 40 inches wide) and have to fold the quilt in half or sometimes fold it multiple times on top of itself to measure for borders. Or do you have any suggestions on the size table I would need in order to measure for borders? Help, I dont want wavy borders anymore. They make quilting a nightmare.

Thank you much for making my sewing easy 🌝🌝🌝☉☉☉☉
I love this Quilt,,,,the colors are great. Watching you work with Borders was great.
Great clip. Very helpful tips.
Thank you for this tutorial. I have a quilt I need to make larger. I never thought of using 3 borders! That’s a great idea.
Beautiful job done 👍❤️😊
Your longarmer will love you if you give them a nice flat quilt. Truer words were never spoken!
Always learn from your videos about to start a Magic Boxes quilt and will use 3 borders like you've just shown!
Really helpful for a beginner like me

Thank you! Wonderful explanation for borders! I may do more borders on my quilts now. Again, thank you!
Loved your tutorial! Most of the ones out there only demo small wall quilts that don't involve piecing the border. So, very, very helpful!!

Great tutorial, easy to understand for a beginner like me, thanks!
Very accurate... perfect
Great tips
Thanks Donna.
Iove your shows. Thank you.
Super helpful, thank you so much!!
I actually understood the calculation process for figuring out the border measurements. Miracle of miracles, let me tell you!
Greetings Donna! it's Lucky from Jamaica. I've try your tutorial on your border, and it's works beautifully I love it, it's very neat and I appreciate all that you have been teaching, blessings to you sis
This is so helpful. Thanks a million.
Wonderful! Thank you.
I love the way you teach. Thank you! 😁👍🏻💜
Love this quilt! ❤️
Great tutorial! I was also taught to put borders on the sides then top and bottom. Reading the remarks I can see that it must be just a matter of preference? Thank you for all your tutorials! Very fun to watch and try new streamlined methods!! Keep them coming!
yes, that's what i was taught as well. I actually prefer it in case my measurements change slightly as i work the outer borders.
Those of us with smart phones have another option for figuring out borders!

I have always loved to do my borders just the way you do ❤ ❤❤ can't seem to do a quilt without borders 😎😎😎
Me too. Attaching binding to the raw edge of a quilt just seems so wrong. A missed opportunity 😅 I feel. Happy quilting 🎉.
love your tutorials !!! Thank you very much
SO MUCH .LIKE TUTORIALES. THANK YOU 😃👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍💫
Brilliant tutorial!
Beautiful!!!
This was a good video I had not seen yet
This was a great video! Can you please do one on measuring and attaching the backing, especially if you have to piece a backing together? I love all your videos!
Sure, that is a good idea.
Jordan Fabrics backing

Yes!! I struggle with the math and always buy too much fabric! Help please 😢😅
Great idea!!!!
I like your teaching methods. I would like to see a mitered border method. Thank you.
This was a good one
Love your tutorials!!!
How to cut a plaid border diagonal? I think that would really look good.
I love that quilt. My biggest problem is NOT STREACHING, u have really helped me with that. Thank you

I have a slightly padded surface and it works well for me. I haven't worked with a hard surface - maybe someone who has will comment.

hi donna, great tutorial, i wondered if you're going to do the baking and binding, i still haven't made my first quilt yet, all tutorials welcome

do you have a video on how to do the binding and the backing I have made 3 tops but not sure how to get them compleated thank you lots your so good
thank you so much for sharing your talents with us. I love the colors.
I even do he math to get it done. the way you say, thanks again
buenos dias muy lindo y sencillísimo gracias Dios la bendiga por compartir sus conocimientos
The only thing I would change is adding 1/2" to your calculated lengths for the top-and-bottom borders (in your example, the 43" should be 43.5", the 46" should be 46.5", and the 55" should be 55.5").

Buenas tardes , bonito proyecto y muy bien explicado , un saludo desde Málaga .E.
Donna: You are a very thorough instructor. I would like to see the long arm quilting you do on a top your created. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you.
me encanta tienes buen gusto para las telas
thank you
Awesome! Thank you for showing. I love it!
thank you .
Do you always just go around the quilt with the borders? I was taught to do both the long sides first and then the top and bottom. Your way seems to be a lot easier. I really enjoy all your tutorials and learning new techniques and can't wait to try this one.

Donna where to you buy the scissors you use? They look like they cut really good. I’m enjoying watching you making your quilts.
Is there a video using cornerstones?
I've only recently found your tutorials and website and I'm so glad I have. You make everything look so easy and it makes me want to jump in and try some of these things. Can you tell me where you measured on your quilt to get the starting measurements?
I just measured across the middle both ways. It was just a rough measuring - it doesn't have to be exact - just close enough so I can figure out the border pieces.
myself thinking learn sew ..😚😚😚😏
Please could you show us how the long arm quilting machine quilts your beautiful work
Yes, I will do that soon - it is really fun for me so I'll be glad to show the whole proceedure.
I've been watching your utube videos back to 2013 but haven't seen anything for a beginner or novice quilter ?
Love your tips and tricks and your concise explanations. I use the app called RK QUILTCALC for measurements. This app does all the calculations for borders, backing. Batting etc. it’s great!
what about the seam allowances? You need to recognize that, even though almost insignificant, because, if someone's addition comes out too close to the length of the WOF x X, there won't be enough - potentially.
Where can I find the video for this quilt please?
Can you tell me the name of the black with white dots fabric used in the large squares and outer fabric? Thanks. I really enjoy your tutorials.
what do you do if you dont have the space to lay out your quilt flat to measure for your border length? I currently lay my quilt tops between my cutting and ironing tables,(the two combined are approximately 95 inches long but only 40 inches wide) and have to fold the quilt in half or sometimes fold it multiple times on top of itself to measure for borders. Or do you have any suggestions on the size table I would need in order to measure for borders? Help, I dont want wavy borders anymore. They make quilting a nightmare.
Yes and I would like backing tutorial when you have to piece 😊to fit
Do long armers supply backing or does customer supply???
I will do a backing video with piecing soon. Some long armers can supply backing, but most do not.
