2nd quilt top in progress
 
3 Attachment(s)
This is my 2nd attempt at a real quilt. I used the Braids on parade for the pattern. This is just the main top, I still have the thin border and then a wide border to put on.

Hope this is okay to post. I am going to use the Moda marble in black for the thin border and the kinda reddish-brown mottled for the wide border. I am going to use the same Moda marble in black for the backing.
