They are both beautiful but thank you for doing the comparison. Good information to keep in the back of one's mind for future reference.

Appreciate seeing and hearing about the two methods that end up looking so much alike. Thanks for doing it and for sharing.

There both beautiful. Have you tried the one with 10" squares. You take two squares and put the face to face and stitch 1/4" all around, cut twice corner to corner and than you have 4 squares and goes together super fast.

That is a succinct lesson we can all learn from! Things are not always as they seem; there are usually more than 1 or 2 ways to accomplish a thing. I appreciate your sharing the pictures and the lesson learned, thus sparing others of us from having to reinvent the wheel and learn on our own!!
