Fill Borders Diagonal
Fill Border Diagonal Triple Line used behind Rope Border
These border patterns are drawn to stitch on a diagonal path and
they will automatically create their own mitered corners.
Each set contains a left side repeat plus a center wedge to reverse the pattern. The
border pattern should be flipped horizontally to stitch the right side of the border.
Important! To avoid overstitching, please read how to set up the wedge section of
the line patterns before quilting. Clamshells and Wine Glass can be used as they
are drawn.

This is my first set of Fill Border patterns, which have been so popular.
The samples show how they would look stitched above and below a running
feather border, echoed once. (the feather pattern is not included in these patterns).
The Fill function will connect lines where they are interrupted
by the echo and the border seam.

All of the straight, piano-key type border patterns above can be
set up with butted borders, but if you prefer the look
of a mitered corner, here are several corner patterns to
coordinate with border patterns shown above.

Setting up a Fill Border with a Corner Pattern
1. Draw the boundary for your border.
2. Place the corner pattern and size it to the density you want. Pull UL resizing handle to extend the pattern off the quilt if you want it larger or less dense.
3. Use Circular Array to make 3 more corners. Position UR corner pattern to match UL. Remove or toggle the remaining patterns sewn to hold for later.
4. Place one border pattern on the CAD and size it to match the corner. Use that pattern size to place the required number of repeats to fill the border.
5. Corner patterns will not snap to border repeats. Align them, using the CAD grid to measure spacing and nudge them into place.
6. Set the Sew Order.
7. Use Fill Inside to crop off parts of the pattern not needed within the drawn boundary.
