I recently purchased
The Quilter's Bible by Linda Clements and I instantly became intrigued with the braided border technique. This gave me a chance to also create a quilt in one color range. So I gathered up the new yellows that I just purchased at Joann's and took out a couple of fat quarters and began braiding! Today I made 5 of the braids....I am planning on making 10 braids (each with 20 blocks) and stitching them together with sashing and a border to make a quilt for my guest room.
As you can see I have all of my pieces resting on my Juki machine. She was so tempermental today that I had to abandon her and use my Singer Quantum to piece. Each piece was 3x6. As usual I used Masterpiece Thread in the top and Bottom Line in the bobbin.
Stay tuned for the finished product!
