Marvelous Miters


When a block or quilt's borders are mitered, whatever is inside looks especially important!

Learn to miter block sashing/borders and quilt borders beautifully, easily and accurately. You may follow project instructions and/or learn the technique and apply it to your designs or those in other books and patterns.

Attic Windows is a block with a bad reputation but it's so undeserved! The Marvelous Miters technique makes this block easy and sashing is built in to every block. It's treated as a second border and is a huge time-saver, indeed.

Here is some of what's covered:

  • multiple borders

  • square and rectangular blocks/quilts

  • attic windows

  • handy cutting chart

  • using freezer paper to stabilize block, keep track of which border goes where, and to help miter

  • lots of projects and a gallery of inspiration
