Modern quilters tend to not use borders at all while traditional quilts have borders.
If you are looking for inspiration on using multiple borders, check out this Craftsy blog post all about it.
What is your favourite or personal style of bordering quilts?

Marsala has been chosen for the colour of 2015. Interested in using it in your home? Check out Houzz’s ideas here. I personally prefer it either in natural light or a slightly darker hue. I think I prefer the crafting option for using it. Here, The Inspired Wren looks at some sewing examples with the colour. There are definitely a lot of options to have it as a focal point (e.g. a cardigan) or a highlight (e.g. flowers in a white dress). Beautiful! What do you think of Marsala? How would or will you use it?
My second giveaway item at the end of November (also an Elsa hat) was a hit with my 8-year-old daughter. She so wanted the one that I gave away so I promised that I would make her one also. She wanted to edit it a little bit so I added a big blue snowflake. The placement of it on top of the tiara was all her idea and I must say I like how it looks. If you want to make your own, check out the FREE PATTERN on Repeat Crafter Me’s blog here. I’m sharing this post on these
A client hired me to make three Christmas stockings for herself, her fiance, and her dog. Here is the FREE pattern I used from Yarnspirations. Instead of cross stitching, I used the chart and colour-worked the images as I crocheted. I also found a chart for letters and added them to the top of the stocking. Which is your favourite stocking – the Christmas tree, the Santa Claus, or the Snowman?
