I really love it. Those bright batiks look so pretty against that light blue!

Beautiful! I love the batiks for this! I've always wanted to make a braid but thought they seemed really hard to do. Are they? If I could do one that turned out at least half this fabulous, I'd give it a try...

I really like the colors of the batiks. I would like to try a braid quilt one day. You did a great job.
