I got my last QOV quilt ,for a while anyway, back from the quilter. Didn't she do a beautiful job, even if it was programmed? I just finished the binding this morning and embroidered the label. Our leader sure likes this braid. Hope you do too.

It's not hard, at all if you have the half hexie ruler. Personally, I've never seen someone hoop it , but I'd love to. I have a friend who has one that I played on but she already had it in the frame. I just don't have the space for a large frame and if I got one like that, I'd want the large. This same fr

Isn't Lynn amazing! I wish I could get a continuous design in my mind, something besides stippling or meandering. Thanks Angie.

Jenny shows how to make the braid using their ruler. I bought the small one, under $5. Missouri Star Quilting Company

Thank you, I do like to play and so glad I have free will, to make what I decide to make. Lynn, the lady that quilted this one, passed 3 of these panels just alike, on to me. She didn't know what to do with them. I think she was happy with what I came up with.
