    Happy New Year, everyone. Thinking about making a French Braid. Are they hard to do....tricky? instructions anywhere?

    I have the book and you know what? This tabletopper is the same thing. It's easy to change the center square for a different design.

    I made one as a Christmas gift for my Aunt and I found it quite easy to do.

    I did a big quilt. Much easier than I thought it would be. And it was fun!

    Thanks, Bellaboo. That's easier than I imagined. I would imagine, the biasy edges would be handled very carefully??? Lots of starch, etc.
