The Bloomin Baskets Quilt has returned home this week after being a cover girl in the Todays Quilter Magazine. It has taken a while to come home with the postage being slow during the covid pandemic the magazine decided it was better to wait before sending it home. Its always a treat to receive quilts back after they have been away. My Granddaughter Ayla loves the quilt, I love watching her feel the fabrics and the applique flowers with their dimension are very intriguing to her.
You can find the pattern here on my website, or you may have a copy of issue #64 Todays Quilter magazine which has the pattern also.
Here is Ayla with the quilt.
Its my turn with the quilt.
Even Benny has given it his snuggle approval.
i hope you enjoyed the photo shoot for the Bloomin Baskets Quilt.
Happy Stitching

Good Morning Sharon,
I have a question regarding your Bloomin’ Baskets pattern. I’m using the instructions in my Today’s Quilter. I absolutely love this quilt and am making it in blues and cream.
Do I trim the large half square triangles to a specific size?
I’m afraid to begin sewing my 2 1/2 inch hst’s until I know the answer.
Thank you!
How to press a Flying Geese Border ? This is the question I was asked so I have done my best to answer as it is not exactly what you might be expecting to see. Read more to see how I pressed the seams to get nice flat intersections.
Making four Flying Geese units at a time is a great time saver, and a wonderful method. I love to oversize the units and trim them down to the correct size for perfect blocks. Read how I go about making these versatile units that I use in almost every quilt I make.
