caledonia quilter: French Braid Quilt

Wednesday, May 20, 2009

I think I've been spending too much time with sewing machines lately. Today I caught myself apologizing to a bobbin. Seriously.

I've just finished quilting this beautiful French Braid quilt.

Then I used 'Jaws' to cut the excess backing fabric into 2 1/2" strips for my customer.

That braid quilt is quite beautiful. I love going to quilt shows to see the different colours people use in their braid quilts.
