Thanks, when Bluprint was still around, I bought this bundle of purples, greens, and beiges bur had not done anythig with them so this seemed a good time to use them. I noticed after I took the photo, I need to really watch my fabric choices so I don't use too many different ones and lose the basket in the design. I was wondering if anyone else has realized this issue as well. I took some of them apart to redo.

I had to be gone for 3 weeks So I’m still working on the borders. But I take a break every so often and work on baskets. I love the piecing and the challenge of working with size and value.

inkypaws OFFLINE Posts: 7 Thank you received: 56	Here are my blocks so far; waiting for class on the basket handle before I finish the Cherry Basket. Flowers are fussy cut from two of the fabrics and will be machine appliquéd. Leaning towards outlining the cherry basket with more background fabric. Planning to keep the quilt on point.

I started to choose fabric for some easy blocks back in August, using a theme fabric I like (the one with shells) but find difficult to use.
So, I tried the color wheel like Alex showed us in the mystery quilt and decided that orange and turquoise was the main colors, very toned down.
I have chosen fabric from my stash to do baskets because I've always liked the Postage Stamp Basket. And then Alex said to the next project is a basket quilt.
I thought "way ahead of you, girl!"

clarkleigh OFFLINE Posts: 5 Thank you received: 51	I am really enjoying this - making a quilt for my Mom, using her stash and mine (mostly hers, she loved browns). She is in long term care because of dementia and I hope this will bring her some joy. She was a quilter in her hay day! (Photo is sideways)
