Those are beautiful!! I'm glad you showed that last pick...why did I always assume you had to sew on one border at a time to the quilt? It is surely less hassle to sew the border strips together first! *Smacks self on the forehead*

No, actually I'd really, really advise against it! Unless you plan it out way before you sew it on! The corners don't work - here is how I had to fix them:

Looks OK, but...
