If you recall, my family had an issue with this quilt being hung in our entry/great room.....
it was just too darn cheery! But I have a large space that needs to be filled and I've always had a quilt hanging in that space...
So the Basket quilt in neutral colors, with lots of linen and muted tones seemed to be the Zen-like quilt they were hoping for....
It is finished....and basted....
This quilt was machine stitched with Aurifil 12wt ivory colored thread....random vertical lines first and then back through with several horizontal lines....
The binding is a French General stripe in grey and charcoal.....
the binding was hand stitched and the quilt washed.....and then....oops
A small area where I didn't catch the quilt top....darn!
All fixed now and a sleeve added to the back so it is ready to hang...
This one is small....about 1/3rd. the size of the Dresden. But I will add some artwork on the wall with the Basket quilt....
I will let you know how the fam likes it!!!
Happy Monday!
