Thanks for the session on making flying geese. Perfect geese and no leftovers! You inspired me to make some flowers for my basket.. My neighbor and I are both doing this project and we met last week underneath a California pepper tree in a nearby park. We spread our work out on the grass while maintaining social distancing guidelines and exchanged ideas and encouragement.

Oh how I adore all those fabulous real puzzles! A joy to see.
My baskets are not that puzzle style as I have to use up a (big) basket full of half square triangles. They are all 2" squares so my baskets are all the same size except the tiny ones in the corners.
I decided for a table runner which used up 250 half square triangel blocks and learned to deal with that piling up seam allowances which run criss-cross in all directions.
I wish I had added one orange triangle in one basket. It's too late now...
Thank you Alex for encouraging me to start and finish this project .

What fun I had working on my piecing skills with the Basket Puzzle quilt! I decided to try the first basket, not expecting to enjoy working with so many small pieces. Before I knew it, I couldn’t stop making these cute little baskets. My quilt is made entirely from scraps, with the exception of the crumb catcher and striped binding. Even the batting is pieced together. I got to try a new technique with the migrating geese border and enjoyed straight line quilting, which I rarely do. It is far from perfect and still needs pressed, but I am pleased overall.

I have been on this journey starting with the Sequoia quilt, then the Kaffe quilt, and now the Basket quilt. With each quilt, I have learned much and seen great improvement in my cutting, piecing, and pressing, to the point, my Basket Puzzle quilt went together like a dream. I did put in an inner border using the red gingham that I used for my basket handles. I will also use the gingham for my binding. Thank you Alex for all the lessons, tricks, and tips you taught in each class. You are a wonderful teacher, and I give much of the credit to your teaching for my success. My favorite tip is, using the Quilter's Select glue stick to glue the fabric before piecing. What a great product! My favorite advice was simply to slow down in my piecing.
