    You probably have finished quilt by now, but I would choose the second one. I like them both, but the second one makes the inside of the quilt move more fluidly.

    May I ask the name of that pattern? Looks like one I could do and I like it.

    Somewhere in these messages, I looked up the pattern name before. Let me see if I can find it. Yes, it is from a book by Rita Fishel called Mystery Quilts. It is called Road to Springfield. I got the book for Christmas and it was purchased from Amazon.

    I have put the borders on my quilt and am busy quilting it now. It will have a blue binding. Somewhere around page 7 there is a picture of the borders on it. I went with the dark blue inner border, small white border, and then the focus fabric as an outer border. I am very pleased with it.
