BASKETS #2

The first set of these basket blocks were done earlier this month.

 

I did these at a fun Sewing Day with some of my buddies.

 

This project has been on hold while I worked on some other things.  This week I finally got a second set of baskets completed.

 

This is the same pattern.  I chose to do the squaring up part from the inside out.  Now I have four of these that are smaller with a little different shape.

There are four more to do for the project and I am thinking about doing something even more different with those.  I think it will give more interest to the completed project.

These are from a Buggy Barn pattern book.

Will post more when the other four are completed.

SEW DAY

What a fun day we had today.  My Pbees friends and I went to Decherd Needleworks for a fun Sew Day.  We made basket blocks from the Buggy Barn book called "Still Crazy".

We started out by stacking our fabrics and then using a freezer paper template to cut up the stacks.  Then we shifted some of the fabrics from the top stack to the bottom stack until we had a good mixture to make our crazy blocks.

Lots of different styles and tastes in fabrics and we had some interesting blocks at the end of the day.

 

This is the first four of a total of twelve blocks.  Then we will square these up and choose a layout.

That will be in a future post.

 

Thanks, Carol, for being our awesome leader today!
