French Braid Quilt

I've shown you some photos of quilted handbags I've made in the past few years. The bags were sort of "practice projects" for a wall hanging I wanted to make, but didn't feel confident enough to try.  I had seen a book called French Braid Quilts and I thought the quilts were beautiful.  I even bought some pretty green batik fabric for the project, but couldn't quite figure out how I wanted it to look.  About two months ago, I  decided to jump in and start.  I just designed it as I went along.  Now it's finished and I'm just delighted with the results.  It hangs on the wall of our porch, where I can see it every morning. It reminds me of mountains, of Asia, of creativity, and it makes me smile.
