Thanks! Unfortunately, sideways would not work with the rest of my plans for the piece. Thank you for taking the class!

That’s what I’m going to do, point up.

These are the materials I am considering for my braid. I’m probably not including everything and I’m not sure if the braid itself will have any beads in it. The fossil will be bead embroidered but I’m not sure if it should be point up or point down in the final piece. Any thoughts?

Another pair of really nice braids! I like the use of your braid for your tea cozy. Your marudai is nice as well, it looks like your brother did a good job with it.

Rosa, those are a good pair of braids. I’m sorry to be responding so late, I didn’t seen the comments until today. Raffia and chenille are challenging materials and you did very well with them!

Peggy, your braid is so nice and I’m sure a matching bead will make it even better! Thank you for sharing.

Marlene, that looks great. Changing up the order of braids is perfectly fine, and doing it because of the counterweight change is a great reason. I hope you go back and try kaku yatsu again, it’s an interesting braid once you get used to it.

Denise, thank you for sharing your sample! I’m glad you made the project your own. Yes, the transition to nishiki is a bit tricky, I think it’s both the counterweight change and the structure.

Sure, use whatever you have that isn’t too thick.

Thanks for sharing your braid and your plans for it, Jane. The braid looks good and I think putting this braid with others would be a really great look for the finished piece. Nishiki yatsu is a fairly new braid to me as well and I think it is a lot of fun on it’s own.

Phyllis, I think your braid looks great! With a little practice you should be fine. I’m glad you like hira nami, despite it’s odd move sequence it’s a good braid. Nishiki yatsu is a challenge for sure, but you did well with it. Thanks for posting!
