Ok, if you have troubles with chunk borders like I do, this lady has a bit on it at the end of her video. I may try this tip instead of doing the whole "measure in three places" jazz that never works for me...(if you look at my quilts you'll notice I never do chunk borders, for that reason!)

This is a whole quilt, but the border part is nearer to the end.

I always like Donna Jordan.  Her instructions are always pretty practical.  I've been doing borders very similar.  Only difference is I fold the quilt in half, then in half again, so that the edges and the middle are together.  That way I can see that the edges are the same as the middle.  Sometimes I smooth it (slight stretch) to make them match.  Then I cut the border as she shows just by laying it on the quilt and pin.  It's handy because the edges are already there ready to pin.  I haven't "measured" with numbers in forever.  I figure why do math when you don't have to.

Right?!

This is the way I have always cut my borders.  I'm mathematically challenged so this works for me.

LOL!!! I've always been Mathematically challenged. I'll be trying this soon...when my hands are fixed.
