I'm pretty new at this, and am hoping to get this done for my DD for Christmas. She likes red and gray (Buckeye fan!), and cats. It's about 48" square before borders; each block is 6". I plan to FMQ, which will be a first for me. I can't decide between alternating red and gray blocks (image #1), or doing groupings of 4 blocks each (image #2). I've been dithering for weeks, and now I have to decide! Also, ideas on borders, quilting (something fairly simple), color of thread? (told you I was new!)

yes, go with the alternating, it is a surprisingly pretty look, when you said red and grey I thought school uniform, but hey it is so pretty, i'd love to see it again when you have finished. PS be patient with the FMQ it is practice makes perfect!
