Teeny Tiny Garden Basket ~ Part Three from Heartspun Quilts ~ Pam Buda

We're close to being done with our sweet Garden Basket quilt.

I added a plain border to set the basket apart from the pieced border and give the basket more space to be seen. I want the basket to be the center of attention.

This is the first design I played with trying to keep the quilt tiny. It's not bad at all, and borders can be added, but it just wasn't what I envisioned. My designer instincts were telling me to go another way. So, I added the scrappy border which I do love. I used ...

Once that 1/4 seam is mastered, there is nothing we can't do! But, still....many of us remain intimidated by tiny pieces thinking there's no way we can do that. Oh, but aren't those tiny pieces and blocks just the cutest?

Teeny Tiny Garden Basket ~ Reveal! from Heartspun Quilts ~ Pam Buda

Welcome to my new Teeny Tiny Quilt Club project called...

Garden Basket

Teeny Tiny Garden Basket is our next project. The truth is, I love, love, love basket blocks and have wanted to make a basket with an applique handle for a long time. While it is my intention that the projects for this club be very small, this one grew to 12 inches square. Yes, small but not teeny tiny. The basket block is perfect for spring, and I didn't have another project for spring ready to go, so I took creative license, and went ahead anyway.

While ...
