          amb2715, love the flowers! I wanted to try and put flowers in my baskets but had no luck. Yours look wonderful and so charming!

            My blocks ranged from 3" to 15" and it was a puzzle to put them together. The quilt is 48" x 52". It was nice to have a small project that offered a challenge.

                Any ideas for borders? I was thinking about a 6" white border with 4 patches running down the center of the border in blues.

                      I wholeheartedly agree-nice to have a challenging, interesting and personality driven SMALL project to tax the brain. What fun seeing everyone’s results!

                        Finally Done! Now, off to the quilters. This one fought me every step of the way: 9” star points, 8” and 12” baskets was my first hurdle. I solved this by needle turned appliqué on the two outside edges of the baskets. The final trial was the scalloped appliqué border. It took me 5 tries to get it right, unpicking each time! What a pain! If it wasn’t for Alex saying she couldn’t wait to see how I finished this, I probably would have done something much simpler. Thanks for the challenge (and motivation), Alex! Can’t wait for the next project! -Kami

                                Am working on my basket blocks featuring baskets with violets for a wallhanging for my Great Niece, named Robin Violet after my Mother Violet. Robins will also included on the wallhanging. Have a lot more creating and stitching to do. Got behind due to finishing my Kaffe mystery quilt.
