sewlinzi Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 I'm looking for simple freehand ideas for a nice (but purple) French Braid quilt. I know some of you have posted before but I can't seem to find the pics I'm imagining that I have seen... Med to large size as this customer will not pay ££ but still wants a nice job! She has suggested "flowing lines" so my first thoughts were Sashiko style stylised water. Anyone got any pictures to get me inspired?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiltingnanny Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Do you have the Circle Lord ? They work up beautiful with the Swirls. 3 that I have done for different people have ribboned. Glenda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quilting Heidi Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Linzi, I have one to do when I get back from vacation too! I hope it speaks to me. This person has a viking mega quilter but she can't do the king size. She wants me to the the center and then she is going to load and do the boarders which I'll just baste. I had the other thread bookmarked so here it is: http://www.apqs.com/quiltboard/viewthread.php?tid=15866 Here are a few more I found on webshots: http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/photo/2430613770085912195GhlVje http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/photo/2613378740085912195WXUzHU http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/photo/2994783950085912195owPlar http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/photo/2929965450044399772LndDRZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sewlinzi Posted May 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Many thanks for the pics - they have got me thinking. The key to this is quick and simple but still interesting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiltmonkey Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 I remember Linda Card (Ramona Quilter) had some quick designs on a french braid quilt. Check out her blog. She always has photos of her quilts posted there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
