Default Antique recreation attempts

I have finished piecing my quilts for the bedroom that our grands sleep in when they ate here-it was time to update!
Waiting on my new rulers to arrive and hope to quilt these in the next month.
I drafted the navy block from a photo of an antique quilt that i saw on Pinterest. The blocks are 12" and set on point.
The green quilt was inspired by the gorgeous yellow version done by luvstoquilt, a board member, and original pattern by Kaaren Johnson.
The quilts are both 78"x 90"....still trying to figure out batting! Twin size ard only 78" wide, which leaves no overlap.

They are both great quilts but I really like the navy and white one.

I have seen the same quilt on Pinterest. That navy and white quilt is on my 'to make it soon' list, collection fabric for now. I am happy to see yours done. Please, show it when is quilted.
