How to make a French braid quilt block

The French Braid quilt block is a striking design made with simple strip piecing and clever fabric placement. In this tutorial, I walk you through the construction step by step, showing how the braid effect comes together without complicated cutting or tricky piecing.

This block works well with scraps or planned colour schemes and is a great way to add movement to a quilt. The method is straightforward and suitable for confident beginners who want a block that looks more complex than it really is.
