    I have seen a few quilts with a look of a ribbon as a border. Has anyone done this? I think it looks so beautiful. Hard?????

    Eleanor Burns demonstrated one during her show, it was very simple, but looked complex :D:D:D

    I have done them and it was much easier than I thought it would be. You do have to work with triangles. I made up my pattern for a border in EQ6

    I'd love to see a picture as I'm not sure what this is.
