I've made two french braids. Both turned out pretty. Here's the last one I did for my DDIL. They can be addictive! Have fun! This was before quilting and binding.

This was my first French Braid

This is my first up load from my phone camera. The picture is a little dark. Sorry, you'll have to turn your head sideways.

Absolutely beautiful.

I too am a French Braid lover. I also really like the Friendship Braid as well. Every braid I have ever seen was wonderful and I will be trying a small one for my next project. It will be a practice piece and if it turns out decent I will give it to a friend of mine who is very special. Then I'll have to make my other friends one when they see his. LOL Good luck!

I just love them. I want to make more than one. I bought fabric to make two so far and am working on the first one. Anyone make one yet? Anyone have pictures they'd like to share?

I bought my book about 5 years ago, still want to make one, one of these days. Use to live in Northern Michigan for 32 years moved to Florida last Oct. from Grayling.

Hi JuanitaBean, the above in red with houses is actually a scrapy French Braid. I had a friend that gave me several fat quarters that were really lively colors and I just took scraps, even silk fabric and included in my french braids with houses. It was a lot of fun.

Any tips on how you quilt the French braid quilts--what design to use ? Thanks , Elaine
