Sadly this was made a few years ago, as I lived in Austria, so I can’t recall the source for the pattern (probably a book I had there).
The border has been crocheted on to the fabric. The fabric is a high-quality product of a now-gone fabric factory from Hall in Tirol, Austria, which used to produce amazing fabrics and traditional motifs. Once I had the luck to visit their factory during an open day, it was truly amazing. Apparently some of their patterns are now being produced by other local factories - more info on http://www.halltex.at/
