Just around the Corner: Quilts with Easy Mitered Borders

Can mitered corners really be easy? Yes! Create a ‘frame’ using folded fabric strips, any 90° ruler, a marking pen, and a sewing machine. Then fold back the straight portion of the mitered frame to give it a charming scalloped effect.

• Skip the math–simple alignment guarantees accuracy every time
• Choose from nine distinctive projects: quilts, table toppers, a tote, a pillow, and more
• Pair strips of different colors and turn back the bias strip to reveal a contrasting underside
