Harriet Hargrave has instructions for this for a block in one of the quilts in Quilter's Academy Sophomore year. Unfortunately, my book is at home, so I can't access it at the moment.
I think for a quilt border versus a block, you will have to be very precise in the 1/4 inch seam.

Here is a blog post from Patchnblock who has made the quilt - showing the care with which the border is done: http://patchnblock.blogspot.com/2011...ck-blocks.html
The technique is the one described above by Ghostrider.

Flanges and piping are beautiful and I've used them several times, but they do require some thought so as not to stitch them down with machine quilting. You cannot use a panto and have an inner flange, for example.

I used this the other day and it worked beautifully!
