These were really fun patterns. I want to make more!

Those tops are beautiful, Chele! I just love the colours, and the braid one looks like fun to do. I bet it was exciting to see it come together.
What is the pattern on the first photo? It looks perfect for some Moda Chez Moi fabric I "mistakenly" bought too much of.

The pattern is called Crazy Eights by www.bitsnpieces.net. The top can be made with eight fat quarters. Easy, easy.

Thanks again for the quick info. I'm going to check out that website. Pattern that use fat quarters seem to be just right, because I don't always know what I'm going to do with them except that I just have to buy them. :-)

love the french braid

Nice, I think the first one is my favorite! :)

I also love the French Braid.

Great job on both Chele. I love the fabrics in the first..nice and wild. I can't believe how even the French braid is. They're both wonderful.

I love 'em!!! You do such good work little sister!! :) I love the brave, bold fabric in the first one!! Everything lines up sooooo perty in the French Pseudo Braid!!

You did such a great job! Not just with the piecing, but with the colors too. I am impressed!

I really like these! The fabrics in the first one are fantastic! I'm trying to figure out the 'faux' french braid.....

Great job!

Good job Chele girl! :)

Very nice. Can't wait to see them finished. Kyia

Chele,
Love your quilt tops. They are great.
Love your fabric choices too.

Chele:

Just thought I would let you know I talked to Claire today, and she said you do VERY good work for a beginning quilter! She is impressed!

And I told her about our little group here on the quiltingboard. I think she'll be checking it out soon!
