HI . JUST WANTED TO KNOW HOW TO MAKE THE ROPE LOOKING BORDERS THEY ARE LOVELY AND WANNA TRY MY FIRST ONE WEEKEND. THANKS FOR SHARING. DIAMONDS MOM. 
Easy to do, hard to explain. It is basically a series of "s" shapes. Start with an S (laying on it's side) then tuck the end of the next S into the hump/hill of the previous one. It really is easy, I just dont know how to explain it. It is in the Wilton course 2 book, maybe on their website also. It probably would help you to look at a picture.
HI MERISSA: DO YOU HAVE A PIC OF ANY CAKE WITH IT? THAT MIGHT HELP CAUSE I DON'T HAVE THE WILTON COURSE 2 BOOK. WHAT TIP DO YOU USE?
You could use the star tips like 21 or 16. I dont think I can post my pictures on the forum because they are too big I think, but click on my photos below and look at my babyshower cake, I have it on the top and bottom borders. Sorry I am not much help, I guess I am not good with words....
Here are the instructions from the course 2 book...I hope this is acceptable...I honestly don't know if this would be copyright infringement. I am sure if it is a moderator will remove it.
In your message I do not see "piped" so I will suggest Fondant..
I always make Fondant ropes, and they really look like ropes, not a bunch on ""SSS's" together.. It looked like a satin cord. very easy too ..
