Basket Quilt update

P1000619 basket blocks finished

These baskets begged for something more than just plain sashing.

P1000781 strips on basket quilt

  So I made a strip of three fabrics, sandwiching the red between two yellow pieces for the sashing.

P1000783 stirps and 9 patches for basket quilt

This called for 9 patch cornerstones.

I like the way it’s coming together and hope to get the top finished next week.   Along with sewing the sashing and cornerstones, I have some setting triangles to add.

Stay tuned for the sweatshirt finish tomorrow – the buttonholes are done, just the buttons to go!  Have any of you started your sweatshirt makeover yet.   If you have and would like, I’ll post photos of them here.
