Hi Ladies,
Sing it, Mo!!! ; ) My soul is still humming right along! I stitched 2 more of the basket blocks this evening. That brings my grand total to 3 of the 12 blocks needed to "complete" the Sally Collins project.
The blocks measure a mere 3 5/8 inches big!? These petite blocks are NOT foundation nor paper pieced... Sally uses no special techniques, & as she said, "Fairies don't just drop from the sky & make this happen." It's kind of cool. Just fabric, thread, sewing machine & patience. A little accuracy helps too. ; )
I am using red for the baskets & black for the background. Each red basket is just a shade different, but the black is all the same. The basket blocks are to be set on point. The fabric squares between the basket blocks, & the setting triangles will be aqua. And, I am thinking borders will be black & a deeper shade of aqua. Well see what happens...?!
Take care ladies. Tomorrow is TGIF!!! : ) Any FUN weekend plans?! The weather is to improve!
Piecefully, Pam
