yes ... my friend is super-sweety-pie! :-)

the middle picture is my progress so far on a quilt using the french braid method. there are 5 columns like this. so far, they're only half as long as they'll need to be.

Oh I want the blue/white on the bottom and the red/white that is the same - where did you get them?

I love that first quilt and your quilt in progress. It is so generous of you to make these awesome quilts and so great of your friend to give some fabric.
Keep up the good work.

I really like the quilt top - very bright - almost mesmerizing -

I like the way you balanced the ends - your way seems to "settle" my viewing of it.

That same pattern/design would work well in many fabrics - I'm thinking black, white, and some other color.

The center piece is pretty - looks like it might be slow going to make it.

What size do you make the tops?

AWESOME that you are doing this!

thanks, all, very much.

yes ... the checkerboard french braid goes much slower than i thought it would. all those seams to match. OY! :lol:

the target size is at least 50" x 60". mine are averaging either that or 60" x 60". square quilts are so much easier than rectangular.
