Basket Puzzle
Here is my basket Puzzle quilt, all finished except for blocking. Because it is asymmetrical, I tried to use color to balance it out. The piece is 26”x26” and because it is small, I skipped a border and added a scrappy pieced binding. Quilting is machine stitch-in-the-ditch around the blocks and big stitch hand quilting inside the blocks. This will be my used on my dining table in November. Thanks Alex for the great lessons! I think this quilt incorporates them all, especially not pressing bias edges (or, what I think of as staying away from the “hot lava” .)Tags: None

I think I'm going to do mine in shot cotton. And as a recent convert to starching the heck out of everything before cutting, I was starching some of the Oakshott they sell at the TQS store today. The colors are really lovely and since "baskets" give me an Amish vibe, I thought shot cotton would be a way to make it more modern looking.
Anyway, just a head's up ... the Oakshott visibly shrinks a bit. However, it didn't bleed at all -- which is really a much bigger issue for me, because it doubles the work.

Starting September 25, 2020 Alex will present a wonderful Sew A Long called the BASKET PUZZLE.
Use this Topic tp share your progress, ask questions and see what everyone else is doing.
You will find it on her Facebook page, The Quilt Show Facebook page or on her YouTube channel. After each lesson airs live at 10 am PST it will be available on the YouTube Channel.
Alex used a bundle of 26 Fat Quarters plus a few more light background fabrics to make her quilt.
Here is a link to all the supplies Alex recommends for this project:
