    Thank you for your kind words ... I quilt for the pure joy and love of it. My goal is that before I die, every one of my friends will have one of my quilts....I keep making new friends so the way I look at it, I'm going to be quilting a long time... :)


    French braid is not hard to do at all ... it's a half log cabin block and it goes together really quick. I made this one while my husband was away for a week so I moved my sewing into the dining room and whenever I had a spare minute I'd add to the braids, before I knew it, I was done... :)

    That's stunning!! I've made one of these quilts and I love this pattern. I'm crazy about the colors you used. Just beautiful!! :)

    I found it a bit challenging myself, but I'm determined to make another one for myself. My new DIL got the first one. :) There's a picture of mine around here somewhere...
