I am making my first DWR quilt. I am using Sharlene Jorgenson's pattern and templates. I have a question for putting a border on the quilt and her book and videos don't show this.

I am giving this to my nephew for a wedding gift and to have this fit on their bed "just right" I would like a little more width.... not quite another ring though. So I think a border would be good.

Does anyone know where there are directions for adding the border? I looked in the photo gallery here and there were a good number of them with the border. I have attached one that I would like to model mine after posted by harvsstuff

In my head I think I could just use the back ground template to get the curve then I could just piece from there. Does that make sense?

I can't remember seeing any border on a DWR. That is different. I would assume the easiest way is to applique it onto the border.

I have seen a border on a DWR. The rounded edges were appliqued on to a wide border piece squaring up the sides. It was very pretty that way.

That DWR with the borders is very pretty. Did you try private messaging her?

yes I did send her a private message. Hopefully I will hear back.. I just wanted to ask everyone else in case she isn't active anylonger

I'm thinking appliquing onto border just like if doing a GFG with a straight edge border.......
