I am so thrilled with these two gorgeous tops. I hope to be quilting them in the next couple of weeks.

One has a plaid inner border that is done in the flap method (three dimentional) and then it is attached to the wider outer border and at a diagonal 45* angle. It was such a pain to do, but I really like the way it turned out! Blocks are 3x4 and it will be backed with Chocolate minkey...so cozy

The other one is 4x4 blocks and and much simpler on the border. Inner border and then a wider border with the corners done with those darling "Happy Flower" blocks. I really think those are so darling I just gotta make a whole quilt with them.
To everyone that made the lovely blocks in these to sweet quilts...a BAZILLION thanks!

This is the top with the inner border flap and a 45 degree corner! This was tough to get right!

They look great! I love what you've done by adding the flowers to the corners.
