    Could you please send a link for the tute? I took a class in this from Jane Hardy Miller, the one who wrote the books on French Braids, but it was a long time ago and I've forgotten whatever I learned.
    Thanks. 8-)

    I had asked earlier about your block you have shown in the margin with your name, but must have gotten lost in the shuffle. I was wondering what the block is called. I can see it is drunkards path and love the striking way it is assembled.
    Thanks

    I got 2 books by Jane Hardy Miller -- French Braid Quilts. I am intimidated just reading the directions -- they are so pretty and the colors they use just flow. It seems like a test of color! Yours came out beautiful!!! How many colors did you end up using? I can't seem to get a flow of colors going -- I get 3 or 4 colors that I like and then I fall off the wagon and start all over!!! Let me know y'alls progress and how you are getting your colors to behave! Thanks -- yours is an inspiration to get me back into the pile again!
