It is a beautiful block.
I would finish it so I could use it as a wall hanging. |
I was also thinking wall hanging. Use some of the bright colors to add a border.

Yes the top runner in your link (in blues) is a French Braid runner. Type in French Braid in the search box on QB and you will find pictures of quilts and runners also.
|
I was thinking of a braid pattern as well. How about making the black braid a bit larger than usual and using the colored pieces for squares? You did a great job on this block. Love it!
|
Use it as a center for a "Round Robin" project.
|
As far as quilting it, I have a tendency to echo appliqued projects, but that's just my fear of messing it up. You could make it the focal point of a small wall hanging. I would LOVE to see you do a few more and make a lap quilt. I know repeating sometimes is not much fun, but you could look for other blocks and see what happens.
|
I like your idea of a table runner with the hearts. It will really go pretty with this square.
|
Applique is not my thing, but I absolutely love your block! I hope you share whatever you decide with us when you do finish it.

It would make a nice center square for the French Braid runner pattern. I would do the braid parts in the bright colours from the square and do little black squares down the center of the braid.
