Thirties Thursday - An Abundance of Baskets


I'm trying to finish up a lot of my UFOs this year. 
In the past years I have participated in a couple of different basket swaps - all blocks made in 30s reproduction fabrics.  The only problem is that I don't want to make any more blocks and one swap was 8 inch blocks and the other was 7 inch blocks.  I think I will add a one inch strip all around the 7 inch blocks (I spy an example of that in there). I couldn't figure out how many of each block I needed so had to lay them out on the floor.  Yes, I think I have enough with a couple to spare.

Oh this is going to be super cute! There's so many things about it I love. First the fabrics, second the baskets, and its scrappy. Looking forward to seeing the finish.

I like the combination of the two different basket blocks. Of course their scrappyness makes it even better.

These look great together! I might need to get out my basket blocks and play with them :)
