I hope everyone had a lovely holiday weekend. I am happy to report that the Easter Bunny (aka Aunt Betty) delivered a yummy Easter Basket on my front door step. The bunnies ears are gone...hmmm...I wonder who ate those? I thought you might enjoy this cartoon along this subject line...
I'm just putting the finishing touches on this basket quilt so I can put it in my shop. I'm calling it Miss Betty after my Aunt the Easter Bunny. It was tons of fun to make and I can't wait to share some new techniques with you.
This week I will have tutorials on how I made the basket and next week I plan on doing some tutorials on how I made that scallop border.
Head on over to Judy's blog and see what everyone else is up to.
Miss Betty looks like it would be fun to make...great color.

I made a woven basket this weekend using strips but I think the next one I do will be with bias strips for more dimension. I look forward to your tutorial.

Looking forward to the tutorial as that basket is fantastic. I need to start working on my Tweets blocks this week.

Beautiful and fun. Love the colors, texture, and lively feel of exuberance, Erin. Wonderful!

The woven basket looks like it was a lot of work. Very pretty.

I love it. Not only as a wall hanging, but as an idea for setting different sized blocks into an applique sampler quilt.
