Trouble with borders?

Are you having trouble getting your borders to lay flat?  Here's a link to a nice explanation, showing how to correctly apply borders.

Notice how she measures the border along the middle of the quilt body, and cuts to size before sewing it on.  This is the correct method.  If you just sew on the border, and the trim off the extra, it's very likely you will have a way border with too much fabric that will not lay flat. 

Hope this is helpful for you.
