    I completed my french braid top. I think it turned out pretty well. The braids stretched a little when I sewed them together and I had to trim some off the bottoms. It finished at about the size I wanted. It is 80x97 inches. I just need to piece a back and then I will send this one to the Longarmer because I don't want to wrestle under my machine. Plus, it is a special gift and I want it to be quilted nicely.
