Oh, how pretty they both are. Love your colors and the patterns. The nine patch took me by surprise, I didn't see it at first. Both are beauties, your folks will love them :D
Just read your post about Jerico Crossroads, looks so complicated. They are both beauties and the quilting is wonderful too.

Oh boy! with so many "Moms" I wouldn't know where to start... LOL Thank you all for your comments.
bluebird, it really isn't complicated. There is only a ninepatch, which was strip pieced, then you put triangles along the sides which turns it on point. Then you sew the blocks all together, add a 2inch border, then use your leftovers in strips along the sides. It only looks complicated because you form arrows by matching your triangle fabric with the block in the ninepatch. I like quilts that are simple to make, but look complicated when finished.
