A patchwork basket
Thursday night was patchwork night and there was a good turnout at our group because Patricia, our tutor, was showing us how to make a basket block. It took me three attempts to get the basket handle lying flat and in roughly the right position! I had to keep reminding myself that Patricia said this was the easiest basket block to make!
I've decided that I will make three more of these and make a small to medium sized cushion.

Great work, that handle looks a tricky cut go get flat.
ReplyDeleteThat is lovely. I struggle with any patchwork more complicated than squares, I can't seem to make things match up.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing what a Durham basket is like as I was born there
Glad you kept trying, Mary, as it ended up looking great :) I look forward to seeing your pillow...
ReplyDeleteIt's fabulous Mary, looking forward to next weeks.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great block, Mary, and a cushion with four of these must look gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great looking block, Mary! I'm looking forward to seeing your next block!
