Enter the width of each border below starting with Border 1 which is the innermost border. You may specify up to 5 borders. If you have only 2 borders, for example, provide the width for Border 1 and Border 2 leaving the entries for Border 3, Border 4 and Border 5 empty. The yardage calculated for each border is for an unfinished border. (This means that the calculator automatically adds 1/2 inch to the width of each border that you entered to account for seams.) Two calculations are performed for each border depending on whether you piece the border strips with a non-mitre cut or with a mitre cut. What is mitre?
