    Alright...here are a couple of options that I'm playing with...ignore my messy drawing....seems that I do better with the machine than the pencil:roll:

    I had just thought about repeating the leafy vine, then came back and saw that several of you suggested it too...so I'll go draw that one along with the McTavish type swirls to see what they look like.....

    stay tuned......

    I am looking at your quilt and thinking you are doing great job, Have you got enough input for the braided border yet, me I am no help (as youknow Patti) quilting is not my forte.

    Just looked at your latest quilting drawing, I love the half flower thingies you chose for the braiding. Just had a very little brain wave, how about a rope style design instead of the diamonds.

    What do you mean "rope style" Elle?...more like a cable type border?

    the vine

    Liked the other design you had for the braid border better, that one kind of detracts too much, just my two cents worth ya know. I do like the leaf design, thats pretty just spotted that one.
