Cisco 3560 Switch and Vlans - correct way to configure

Cisco 3560 and Vlans (500 points up for grabs here)
we have 2 cisco 3560 switches connected together via fibre using a sfp module runnung as a 802.1q trunk. I have set up 3 vlans on both switches.
  |---------|                      |---------|
  | --------| __________ |---------|
      A               Fibre            B
 
 hostname A                                              
 interface Vlan1                                
  ip address 192.168.1.254
 interface Vlan 10
  ip address 192.168.10.254
 interface Vlan 20
  ip address 192.168.20.254

interface range fa 0/1 - 12
 switchport mode access
 switchport access vlan 10
interface range fa 0/13 -24
 switchport made access
 switchport access vlan 20

I have set the GI0/1 to a 802.1q Trunk.

I have configured swith B in a very similar fassion, but given the commands
interface vlan 1
 ip address 192.168.1.253
interface vlan 10
 ip address 192.168.10.253
interface vlan 20
 ipaddress 192.168.20.253

again i have set gi0/1 to a 802.1q trunk.

I have set devices in each vlan to have a default gateway of the vlan address on router A.
 My question is is the the correct way to do this, do I need to assign a ip address to each vlan on each switch or should i just assign address's on switch A, I seemd to have a few connectivity issues until I issued a "ip routing" on each switch.

It does seem to be working but is it correct.

Thanks very much
