My most recent version – pieced border is cut 4.5 inches by various lengths, the inner red border was cut 1.25 inches. There is a flange inserted between some of the blocks in a zigzag manner to give a little pop of red to the center of the quilt.
Here’s a another version I made in Blue and Green. Note that the zig zags are not very distinct in this quilt so if you want to get that result, use two colors that strongly contrast like the red & purple quilt above.

I have been going through back e=mail from QP and found your website. I am in awe of your wonderful quilt designs. I love the designs…Wow. I belong to a Crazy Crafters Group in Sarasota Fl. Their are 5 of us and we meet weekly for about 6 hours to quilt to our hearts content, always learning from one another.
The past year, our Condominium Association adopted an elementary school and provide the over 50 homeless families with food, clothing, christmas gifts or whatever their needs are. We quilters are now making quilts for baby’s, toddlers, & teens as some of mothers are single parents. Looking for fast and easy yet joyful patterns is not easy and I feel so blessed to have come across you web site. We will be making Christmas stockings which our association will fill with goodies. What a fulfilling time this is for us. Thank You, Sandy
