Here's what I came up with. The quilt top measures 46 x 68--a nice size. It called for one more row--but I thought that would make it too long. It didn't need that row to complete the design--it kind of made it incomplete. I added it on the Sunflower one, but thought then it was a tad long. I'll add the Sunflower picture too.

Edited to add: The strips in the Sunflower one follow the directions- 1.75 in strips-with 6.75 in squares. The Sunny Day strips are 1.5 and the squares are 5.5. I like the smaller size better. :-)

This makes three tops done to take to the quilters. :roll:

Woohooo!!! Good job! :) It's beautiful and the rust frames the quilt center nicely. :)

Three to go to the quilters??? You are a quilting machine girl! ;)

Very nice and great work, Nice colors.

Great job! Have fun quilting!

Perfect!

Those are lovely. I put the picture in my "Ideas" file. Someday!!! :D

I really like them both. But I'd have to go with the measurements for the Sunflower one. I'd never get the 1.745 consistently. I'm assuming that's a scant 1 3/4? I don't think I have a ruler that's marked off that way :)
Very nicely done.

i see you settled on the yellow for border 2.

geeeeee. what a surprise. NOT! :lol:

i toooooold you your instincts were sharper than you thought. :wink:

leaps and bounds of pride and joy are yours for the taking, grasshopper.
