It's going to be beautiful when you finish!!! I just made one (smaller) and I just loved how it turned out...
|
how can you not finish something that bright and beautful? Just take a quick one minute breather and dig back in, after all you're over half done and every stitch puts you closer to done. Hang in there!!
|
Oh my, can you still see straight? Keep going, it is looking really good. Reminds me of basket weave laid together like that. Are you going to sash it or put it together strip to strip? Can't wait to see the finished project.

it's beautiful. i have one started but like you , have no motivation to finish , but looking at yours has inspired me to finish mine. thanks ,
|
keep going, every seam sewn is one nearer the completion. That is what i tell myself about my Jane quilt anyway! It really is stunning!
|
Just sew together what you have and call it a throw!
|
You have a beautiful quilt in the making and will so happy when it is done. You can do it! Thanks for the link to the sight-think I will try something smaller first and then maybe a big one.
|
I made one of these a couple of years ago and did use strips; for the two outside long edges, made a pattern using about 10 inches of braided strip and about the same of the plain strip, decided if I made another, would use that pattern all over.

This is a simple template I found but it is easy to do with 2 inch by 4.5 inch peices.

This is amazing! You MUST finish it so we all can be amazed!!
|
Please don't stop, this is what quilts were originally made to be. Scrappy but functional. Love it and thanks for sharing your hard work with us.
Just saw your audition of sashing, the black really makes it pop. Please don't let it be a UFO. |
Please, please finish and display in your own time.
|
It will be beautiful, shashings or not. Can't wait to see it finished.
|
i like the black sashing the best, makes the colors pop out.
|

Just add sashing stips between, a narrow 1st border than a wider 2nd border and your done.It will be great.

I LIKE POP! |
Are you going to put solid strips between the braids or just braids either way very very nice. :-D
|
I may stop at 24 strips, so 8 more to go.
|
Just a suggestion: try yellow for the sashing and black for the border.

Keep it up-you'll love it when it's done!
|
This is going to be a beautiful quilt when you get it finished--with or without the solid strips. We are all anxious to see the finished top so go, go, go.

Don't stop now - it's too pretty to junk. Read a good book, change your scenery for a while, and then get back to work! You will be so pleased with yourself when you finish it.
|
Absolutely love it! Keep going.................. Can't wait to see it finished.

I'm see a strip of black between each row to set off all of those wonderful colors. I just LOVE a scrappy. They are better than rainbows. :-)
Way too pretty to not finish. Your work is quite remarkable. |
I like it much better without sashing strips. I think you are doing a great job on it and I love all the different colors. It will be gorgeous !!!

WOW! You are a brave woman!!!
