Just a quick update:
I have made all eighteen basket blocks and have sewn them together!
This quilt needs an applique border…that may take a while. I am still trying to work out a new routine for myself.
I am noticing that less computer time equals more me time. 🙂

Laura this quilt is so beautiful. The colors are striking – think I need to make a quilt with a black border – maybe after I get finished with OMIGOSH! Doing some beautiful work! I know you are enjoying your new work schedule! Makes a difference! Hugs

Hi Laura! Love, love, LOVE how this is coming together. Those baskets look fabulous – FABULOUS – with the dark background. All those colors really pop. The borders sound like a lot of work but I think it will be worth it in the end. ~smile~ Roseanne

Thanks, Roseanne! I am looking forward to the borders (whenever that is gonna be), since I enjoy both machine and hand applique. I will probably do it by machine, I think. 🙂

Fantastic – not only visually, but also especially because the baskets are all pieced with those fabrics stashed in your drawers/bins that you cleared out just recently. Yep, I remember that!

Ha, ha! Not only all stash fabric, but old hand-dyed by me stuff! I’ll have to be careful…you are blessed with a very good memory, Laura! 🙂

It’s so interesting to see a traditional block made over in bright modern fabrics. It will definitely be worth investing the time to add the applique and finish this quilt 🙂
