Amish Baskets


This is a quilt top that I have sewn together by machine. When handquilted, I will be quilting large hearts surrounded by feathers in the white blocks. Not sure yet how I will be handquilting the rest. I thought this quilt would be eye-catching and also look traditional. I basically didn't have to go out and buy "new" fabric for this quilt. Most of it was bought when we were staying at one of our timeshares near St. Louis, Missouri. I use to do that; buy fabrics and match them up for later use in making a quilt. Tip is to always make sure you buy enough; better to have too much than not enough! Deb
