How to make a braided border video tutorial

Braided quilt border

Quilt borders are often overlooked, but they can truly transform a quilt, bringing the whole design together and framing it beautifully. Whether you’re working with a simple or intricate quilt, the right border can enhance the overall look, adding depth, balance, and a polished finish.

When choosing a border, one important thing to consider is the width of your quilt blocks. A well-thought-out border should complement the size and layout of your quilt, ensuring everything fits together seamlessly.

Borders don’t just add dimension—they can also be an opportunity to play with fabric choices, colours, and patterns. With a few thoughtful choices, you can take your quilt from great to stunning.
