I hope you don't mind if I may make a suggestion Donna. I mean, I'll
make it anyway and you can just ignore it!! but don't be offended.
OK?
Scalloped edges can be really tricky, because of the inside pointed bit.
That is such a pretty quilt. How about doing a more gently curved
border, that doesn't actually come to points? It will still look
pretty, you can still use your appliquéd sunflowers, and you can use
*bias binding, but you won't have any tricky bits at all. You can also
get round the corners with a gentle curve, and just carry on.

hey that line about 'cheese sliding off the cracker' might be useful for
Sunny with that rude woman in her class that works at her LQS.
i just read it to dd, she and i both like that one in particular.
blinker is good too but not as good as the sliding cheese.
other favs of that nature...
a can short of a six pack
a sandwich short of a picnic
and others that elude my brain just now.

<feel a bit like i lost my cheese today...still fighting off a headache on
day 3, i'm think'n it is spring allergy related, tho never realized before i
had issues with spring growth, maybe i need a green nap a bit later,

Our children have such keen wit - it's fun (and exhausting) just to sit back
and listen. Yesterday, one of them remarked, "Yep. The cheese just slid
off his cracker."
The other replied, "His blinker's been on a long time and he Finally
turned the corner."
Maybe one of those is what happened to you. LOL BTDT Polly

Awww, Dee. That's my favorite. My beloved DH never knows when I mention
there's a 'screw loose at the controls' just exactly What I might have
gotten into.
When I was threading the serger tonight it could have been:
I cut off 2 fingers and the tip of my nose,
put out one eye
and shut down the electrical power for the entire Swamp.
Yes. Screws loose can be a problem. Definitely a screw loose here.
