What was your inspiration?
I love the french braid, and have seen how people have a lot of problems picking out frabrics to do one. Jelly Rolls and Layer Cakes make great French Braid quilts. The fabrics are already picked out for you.
What are you most proud of?
How wonderfully the pattern worked out as far as the colors blending.
What advice would you give someone starting this project?
The more modern Jelly Rolls seem to be too busy. The more traditional fabrics work much better. TheJelly Roll needs to have three basic color pallets and a good combination of light, medium, and dark colors in each color way to complete the quilt as shown.
