I too have made several of the quilt storybooks into quilts; think they are more functional that way. I too cut them apart, sashed them, put a final border around them which is usually the same as the sashing and then quilt and bind. The sashing and backing is not necessarily the same as the theme of the storybook. I have 3 done but pics are on my phone; not sure I can attach them. (but then have never tried either) I did try; they wouldn't download. Sorry.
