Counting Flowers

I'm making progress on the flower braid. I followed Jane Eborall's tip and made a corner soon after starting. That makes it easier to work out exactly how many repeats are required for each side, corner to corner. 27, that's how many. The blue threads are where I've marked every 10th flower so that I don't have to keep checking how many I've done.

    Now you've got a good idea for ME!!! I'll be marking every ten repeats on the next edging I do too. Thanks for that, Jane. Being a tad senile I kept counting from the corner each time!!! DOH!!!!!

    Now that's a clever idea (the blue threads)! I wonder why I've never thought of that. It seems so much easier than counting every so often.

    The flowers are a great addition to the edging, and the blue threads are a great idea.
