    Default Triangle Border

    I want to add triangles to the outside border of my quilt (with the points down - sort like a triangle scallop if that makes any sense). I'm not sure how to attach the triangles to the quilt. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    Not sure what you are referring to. Are any of these borders what you are referring to??

    I love prairie points on a quilt. I once put them around the center, really a nice look. The points have to be tacked to make them stay put. They are easy as any border to sew on.
