In trying to hook up my photos at Judy's blog for the July challenge quilt.....i realized i had never shown it finished. July was a very busy month. i had taken pictures....just not posted them. anyway, i finished this quilt on July 20.....and that was in the midst of to-do jobs getting done at the farm. i hope August is a bit saner. LOL
Here is the front. i believe i had some of these prints....got more from my sister....and then bought a few more to round out the selection. it's an easy pattern....just tedious.
The top was started about 3 years ago. i'm glad i finally finished it up.
The braids got feathers and cross hatching in the sashings. borders were piano keyed.
Nothing fancy or exciting...just another top finished.
Now it's time to tackle the August #7 challenge.....it is already pieced....a huge 112x126 top with embroidered blocks. that has been pieced for about 6 or 7 years. i almost dread quilting it. it also has 2 pillow cases to go with it. Aack!!

Oh I love 30s. I also love the braid pattern you used!
Congratulations on a beautiful finish!!
Very pretty--perfect for snuggling under! Congrats on a really lovely finish!
Never met a French Briad quilt that I did not love and yours is no exception. Beautiful job - love the colors - and the quilting just fits. Judy C in NC
