4. Fold the pieced quilt top in half top to bottom. Place a straight pin on each fold at the outside edge of the quilt. Repeat for the opposite side. Fold the quilt in half crosswise. Mark with a pin at each outer fold.

5. Lay one strip along the left top corner of the quilt. IMPORTANT: The long sides may line up with a graceful curve at the corners. If the corners do not line up nicely do the following: Fold the stripe at a 45° angle and press. In the case of the Fresh Lilac stripe the curve will miter nicely when the little bouquet of lilac buds falls in the center of the 45° angle.

6. Fold the other end of the strip at the center mark. Press to create a 90° angle. If you are using long strips trim the length off at least 1" longer than the 90° crease.

7. Match a strip to the opposite end of the border and sew into place. Stop your seam allowances 1/4" from the corners. Sew the center seam completing the full length.

8. Repeat this process for the top and bottom.

9. Bring the corners of the border strips together. Repeat at each corner of the quilt.

10. Sew directly on the pressed 45° angle. Stop the seam 1/4" from the inner corner. Trim excess fabric. Press open. Repeat at each corner of the quilt.

11. Layer the quilt backing (wrong side up), batting and quilt top (right side up) together. Baste the layers to secure.

12. Quilt as desired. Trim the edges 1/8" away from the quilt top outer edges.

13. Bind using 3/8" seam allowance.
