    The blocks & sashing for the purple quilt are 3 1/2" with 2" triangles on the end of each sashings to make the stars. I cut the outside border 4" to make sure I don't cover up the star points with the binding. I haven't made a quilt yet with a perfect binding. =)

    The cars and quilt are from this book..

    http://www.amazon.com/Growing-Up-Qui...up+with+quilts

    I didn't of course do it just like the one in the book..I never seem to follow the pattern exactly. =)

    Both are great quilts. I like the idea of adding the road to those cute cars.
