Border #3 for the Old Town mystery quilt is pieced squares, alternating red and white/neutrals. There are a lot of intersections to try and match up with the four-patches in the second border so I pinned each and every one.
The majority of the intersections matched up on the first side, so I did the same with the other three sides.
All of them worked, each border fit on pretty much perfectly, I was really happy about that.
A lot of ironing to do.
And then stay-stitching around the entire thing. Gosh, it's hard to sew "not-quite 1/4" after doing this whole quilt concentrating on doing and exactly 1/4".
And there it is, all done! Now I'm looking for a title and then I'll have some backing and binding to be made. So it doesn't count as a "quilt finish" yet, but it's a quilt top finish and goes into the finishing category for me.
