My July goals included adding the final borders to 2 different projects. One of those projects is now a flimsy and the other one has borders cut.
The yellow outer border was all that Checkered Stars needed to be a finished flimsy. So this one is now ready to quilt. It's 48" square, so will make a good baby quilt.
The other project that needed borders was Shooting Stars. This one was a new project that I pulled from the PIG drawer - (Projects in Grocery sacks) and was a reward for a previous UFO finish. Such a cute kit, but I felt it needed to be larger.
A 2.5" inner border has already been added, and the floral outer border pieces have been cut. One of those borders is actually attached, so it is very close to being a completed top.
Checkered Stars will probably go immediately be quilted, but the Shooting Stars flimsy will probably hang in the closet until I need a quilt of that style as a gift.

pretty finishes!
The yellow border looks great with the checkered stars. I rarely use yellow in my quilts, but I love this completed baby quilt. Nice job!
The yellow border compliments the stars nicely. Yeah for moving both of these forward.
The yellow border is a great addition to the baby quilt. I love the border fabrics on Shooting Star, too.
I am partial to yellow so I love the first quilt! The other one is lovely too, that is a great border for it!
