This is a complete guide to border techniques with dozens of designs to mix and match. Borders can do so much more than just add to the overall size of a quilt top - they can frame the center, drawing the viewer's eye around the edge and then back to the focal design of the quilt. "Borders - The Basics & Beyond" teaches quilters everything they need to know about the basics of good border design, as well as step-by-step border techniques for dozens of different styles in a variety of sizes - all accompanied by easy-to-follow, full-color illustrations. This title features: more than 20 borders; dozens of mix & match options; and, hundreds of full color photos, diagrams & illustrations.
