Example Border

  • Did you search Google? I did and found several how-to's – the top link was even from GIMP itself. If you tried those methods but they did not work for your purposes, you might want to add that to your question (also include why, of course).

With Edit>Stroke path:

  • In Line mode, the line is filled with a pattern (but the pattern is not rotated to follow the path)
  • In Brush mode, the brush is used to paint along the path, and you can set Emulate brush dynamics using a Dynamics setting that tracks the path direction to rotate the brush.

You can also use ofn-gradient-along-path to stroke a path with a transversal gradient.
