This quilt is for my grandbaby. So I was positive I wanted to scallop this border I even marked it. Now I'm chickening out when it comes to cutting it and I'm second guessing myself. I have worked with bias binding and curves they are not my issue. I'm just wondering if it would look good? I doubled the batting as well. Thanks in advance
It's a 3" border the quilt right now is 37x48
I think it would be adorable with the scallop as long as your border is wide enough to do it.
That is one adorable quilt! I think that shallow scallops would work great - or a wave border!
I think scallops would be beautiful. Your quilt is adorable!
YES! Would be adorable scalloped!
But don't cut first. Sew the binding on first, THEN cut the scallops out. Use your drawing line as your guide.
Yes!! It's the perfect project for it.
YES!! I would scallop!! very pretty it will be adorable!
Or just do round corners.
I'm sure whatever you decide it will be beautiful.
I also think this is adorable and scalloped border would be pretty.
Yes to a scalloped border! It will look fantastic! I was afraid to do it but found it was really very easy.
It would be so girly and feminie with scalloped borders. And thanks to Catheryn, Queen of Scalloped borders ( beautiful IQ quilt with amazingly elaborate scalloped borders!) for the advice to sew the binding on before cutting. Thanks for that advice!
It would be lovely scalloped!
Thanks everyone! I appreciate the encouragement and I will attach before I cut....great pointer. I need this in the mail Tuesday, now to finish
Such a cute quilt and it would look great with a special edge. I'm not sure the border is wide enough for a full scallop, but what do I know. I've been too chicken to try also. The wavy border might be nice. Can't wait to see what you decide. It might give me the courage to to try.
I think scallops would be great! I just scalloped an 88" square quilt. It took some time but it wasn't hard. You will need to use bias binding.
I know I'm voting after the polls have closed but I agree with everyone who has said scallop the edges. Also I'd like to buy Catheryn a beer for the sew before you cut advice. Filing that away for future reference.
