This week I spent time cutting the rest of the blue background pieces for my charm basket quilt. Choppin' up those blues...
202 baskets blocks are needed for the quilt per the pattern. I am having fun with stitching these during my lunches and planning periods at school. My baskets are trimmed to 4.25" vs. the recommended 4.5" unfinished block due to wonkiness. 52.5" x 64.5" finished is the quilt pattern size. My quilt will be larger to make it a more usable size for our family. I intend to keep this quilt in our living room.
The quilt pattern is called Charm Basket by Laundry Basket Quilts. It is an Edyta Sitar design. I also stitched circles on two Dicey blocks this week in blue (Rainbow Scrap Challenge 2025.)
It's really fun for me watching this basket continue to fill.
Here's a Dicey block I made in yellow:

The yellow Dicey blocks are so nice and cheerful, just like daffodils! Can' wait to see the blue baskets, happy stitching!
As always, you have lots of pretty blocks on the go.
I continue to marvel at your appliqué prowess. What a great way to use the down time at school.
Nice basket of baskets! Nothing Dicey about them. Lol!
Such cute little basket blocks. I can see why they make a good stitching project during your breaks at school. It would be relaxing.
