I worked on a few more baskets yesterday and this is what the layout looks like so far. While improv baskets came together pretty quickly, the fact that all the blocks were different shapes and sizes made for some very "interesting" piecing - almost like putting a puzzle together. I'm thinking of adding some fun border and I'll be ready to quilt.
And, speaking of improv piecing, I also started a new baby quilt (I started it a few days ago, not yesterday, just so you know). I think this color combo - pinkish red, aqua, grey, and white is so wonderfully sophisticated and serene. It might be one of my favorites right now.
Hope you all have a wonderful and creative rest of the day. Svetlana
Very cool, that liberated basket one totally has to turn into a beach bag or something, with spades on the other side!
