I just got a new 'Bali Pop' called Cotton Candy and now I know just what I'm going to do with it! Thanks for the inspiration!

Gina I made this quilt also. I will post a pic in a bit. How did you quilt yours? I was thinking stitch in the ditch but not sure.

Thank you so much for answering my question. Gina and Wendy both quilts are just beautiful. Can't wait to get started.

Hi Tillena, I have also made the friendship braid quilt, using the binding tool. It was a really great project, very easy and fun to watch it grow. I used Timeless Treasures - Tonga Treats 2 1/2 " wide pack (jelly roll equivalent). I put a 3" border between each row and a 5" outside border (black). The quilt measures 55" x 66" including the borders. I haven't quilted it yet, was thinking of doing stitch in the ditch around the columns and maybe a leafy design around the borders, can't quite decide... if anyone has some ideas/suggestions, I'd be pleased to hear them. Have fun with it Tillena, I wouldn't hesitate at making another one.

Re: Friendship Braid Binding Tool Quilt Question

It's on my to do list. I just got the binding tool to do it so I'll be watching this, too.

Has anyone made this quilt? I was wondering how big it turns out using 1 jelly roll (40 strips) and sashing. How big of sashing did you use? I was thinking of using a Bella solid jelly roll for the sashing.
