Very nice, the dark to light works great. Looks like a braid the way you have it laid out. It will have a wonderful weaved look as it grows.

Love Bonnie Hunter. I already had several 'leader/ender' projects cut out and ready to go, so I didn't start this one. Right now I'm working on a stacked coin type of design.

Susie go to Quiltville.com and click on Blog. At the top of the page you will see Tips and Techniques--click on that and then scroll down until you see Leaders and Enders.

I was going to do this one, but I have too many projects on my "to do" list right now. Your colors are great! Hope you post a picture when it's finished.

When I first read about Bonnie Hunter's leader/ender idea, it seemed so complicated. I was already using a leader -- old binding strips, but hadn't grasped the concept of the ender. Then it all finally clicked, that I could go through the same motions as I did using the binding strip, but actually work on sewing another project! So I'm currently using Orca Bay as my leader/ender project, which is an ideal one, as it goes on forever, LOL.
