OMG Those are gorgeous! By any chance is this a pattern from the 'French Braid Obsession' book? I just happened to be browsing thru it today at my LQS, but was out of time, and didn't get to closely check out the patterns. I've been wanting to do a French Braid quilt for a long time.

Beautiful braids, love the whole quilt! All three runners were different even though from the same pattern.

Wow - they are all beautiful. I love the way different colors can make the same block look completely changed.

Hi Overlander,

Great job!!! I did one in black and white with red moire sashing. I think I used the wrong kind of fabric (polyester / rayon) becasue it was kind of stretchy and the sashing was wavy :cry: Do you stabilixe your strips, or just stick with 100% cotton. How havw you been?

The other Barbara :lol:

That pattern is in the French Braid Quilts book by Jane Hardy Miller. It may also be in the French Braid Obsession (same author), but I can't dig it out tonight to check.

I am in the process of quilting one myself and it is so easy! I did the first of 4 panels in about 1 hour. I hope to post a picture of mine in the next several days.

As Maryb119 stated, it is fun, fast and beautiful! The hardest part is deciding on the fabrics! :)
