I have been making these small applique baskets for a while. I have some charm packs of French fabrics, so I drew a small basket that fits exactly on the 5inch squares (as I didn't want to waste any !) and the background squares are 6". There are 30 finished now, and this afternoon I prepped another 70. I have now used all the background fabric I had and am not sure yet how big I would like the quilt to be. All the baskets are different, and all shades from pastels to very dark. I have an idea for an applique center, and I also have some plans for the setting. They have been so much fun to do - it is hot here now and they are small and not heavy in my lap .
Hope everyone had some time to sew this weekend.

Love them!
Lovely! I am looking forward to your progress.
"it is hot here now and they are small and not heavy in my lap" is easily understandable for me in hot and humid Tokyo! I am making small baby shoes for my young friend who is expecting at present.
I can't wait to see all the baskets together! I think it's hot everywhere - makes for small projects. I'm looking forward to fall.
Die Blöcke sind klasse ! Ich hatte schon befürchtet, dass Du das applizieren aufgegeben hättest.
Das wäre nämlich jammerschade :-)
