    Soft- Edge Pieced border on Lone Star Garden quilt

    Barbara, I clicked on your Lone Star Garden image that TQS is using for the puzzle. I particularly loved the border you did on that quilt.
    Is that needle turn, or machine appliqué with turned glue edge? Did you do it as a pieced border in blocks or is it just one long stripe on each side.
    Very unique, and very beautiful. Love all Jinny Byer fabrics. HelenW

    Helen, the borders are each long lengths of border stripe fabric. Jinny created a technique she calls “soft edge piecing”—she wrote a book about it. That’s why I kept buying more of that stripe. Each of the 8 diamonds in the Star was cut from one piece of border stripe, each cut exactly the same as each other—that took lots of fabric.
