Cherry Basket
That's the actual name of the quilt block and I made my blocks all in cheery cherry fabrics.
I've been big stitch hand quilting the blocks with red perle 8.
I've also finished the wild rose and leaf needle turn applique on the second corner of my Bramble Blooms II quilt. I was going to see how I liked just doing the applique in opposing corners before I went on to do all four corners. I've decided I need to put the wild roses in all four corners. And before all is said and done I will probably add a few appliqued butterflies.
Bramble Blooms is an improv-do-your-own-thing Quilt Along hosted by Audrey at Quilty Folk. This is my second quilt that will be a series of 3 quilts.
And sew on...

Oh, such pretty quilts!
Your cherry basket quilt is so pretty, Cathy! I bet it is a pleasure to quilt along on and enjoy those pretty prints. This is definitely the time of year for beautiful sunrises and sunsets!
Oooohhh, I love the cherry baskets. The rickrack really adds to the blocks. I love the bramble one as well.
