I have finished the basic layout and joining the blocks on my Baskets A-Plenty quilt. The pattern called for 72 baskets but I needed a bigger quilt so I ended up with 111 7 1/2″ basket blocks. This is where I leave the pattern behind and strike out on my own. I will be adding a small white border all around and I think I will add some flying geese blocks on each side. Not sure about the geese but I need something to make it a little wider to fit a queen size bed so if not geese then….who knows what.
Looks like a lot of work.

Yes, Kathy. It is a labor of love.

The ones I do are very basic.

Kathy, I like basic. I usually do the ‘one block’ quilts and by the time I’m finished I am very good at that block. I love the older patterns.
