    These were really fun patterns. I want to make more!

    French Pseudo Braid. Ran out of strips to repeat the braid.

    Those tops are beautiful, Chele! I just love the colours, and the braid one looks like fun to do. I bet it was exciting to see it come together.
    What is the pattern on the first photo? It looks perfect for some Moda Chez Moi fabric I "mistakenly" bought too much of.

    The pattern is called Crazy Eights by www.bitsnpieces.net. The top can be made with eight fat quarters. Easy, easy.

    Thanks again for the quick info. I'm going to check out that website. Pattern that use fat quarters seem to be just right, because I don't always know what I'm going to do with them except that I just have to buy them. :-)

    Great job on both Chele. I love the fabrics in the first..nice and wild. I can't believe how even the French braid is. They're both wonderful.

    You did such a great job! Not just with the piecing, but with the colors too. I am impressed!
