which looks better, please
 

I just love my EQ! I'm able to test out blocks and layouts. Before Valentine's day, I made the scrappy hearts center of this representing my 4 DGKs. I never finished it as it was too large for a wallhanging for my space. Since I've moved, I got out all of my UFOs trying to decide what to do with them. I decided to donate this scrappy to my charity quilting group for them to make it into a baby quilt. Well, they decided just to give me the fabric for additional borders for me to work on it at home :) I couldn't decide to use uneven borders to make a 41x47 sized quilt or with even borders to make it 42x42. Which do you like better?

I think if it is planned to be a baby quilt I would go with the 42 x 42. Either way looks just as good to me. I just think the size is better that way.

I like rectangles better

Even. But I'm a fan of symmetry.

For a baby quilt, I would prefer the square (unless it's meant for a crib). A square quilt has the option of being used diagonally, as well as straight.

I like the first option, the 42" square.

I'd use the square as little one when they are put down on the floor on the quilt do wiggle around quite a bit.

I prefer to make baby quilts crib size. Baby will be able to use it much longer, 45 x 60". Very pretty top.

Beautiful quilt. I love the square size.
