Welcome!

Hello there! Thanks for stopping by my shop. I'm Sarah, a young lady who loves the Lord and loves making quilts! I've been sewing for as long as I can remember- probably since I was 7 or 8 years old. I think back to some of my earlier creations and laugh! :) About eight years ago I made my first quilt, tracing my own pattern from a quilt on my parents' bed. I was so intrigued with their quilt and I would sit and stare at it, loving how all the pieces fitted together perfectly to form the different blocks that made up the quilt. Then one day I decided to trace the pieces on their quilt and make my own. So, I made my first quilt and I haven't stopped since! :) It just pushes my happy button SOO much to work with fabric and turn it into a lovely quilt.

Mitered Corner Border Tutorial

Today we are going to learn how to make a mitered corner border!
Cut the borders so that they overlap each other a few inches.  
Sew all the borders on, starting and stopping 1/4 inch from the edge.  It's helpful to put pins in as markers, or else you'll be like me and forget and sew right to the end! ;) 
Now fold the quilt in half diagonally so that two of the borders match up. 
Place a ruler along that 45-degree angle edge and trace a line.
Put a few pins in to hold the fabric in place.
Sew on the line, starting exactly where the stitches on the border stop. 
Open it and check if everything looks alright, and then trim the excess fabric.
You now have a beautiful mitered corner!
I thought I would let y'all see the finished product of what I was making in this tutorial! I'm excited to say that this table runner is going to be available for purchase sometime very soon! 

Have a blessed day!
