Farmer's Market Basket quilt

Hi

                                       What did everyone do this weekend ?

Well............... I started a New quilt that has been on my " To DO " list for sometime
This quilt is called HIGH FASHION but I call my quilt " FARMERS MARKET BASKETS "
I started this quilt Saturday morning only using 1 layer cake of Farmer's Market by Brannock & Patek and I am almost ready to sew it together . 

I got this pattern from this book More Layer Cake ,  Jelly Rolls & Charm Quilts. I was ready for a quick and easy quilt after Peppermint place.

Now you are probably thinking  HMMM  What happen to Peppermint place ?  Did she finish it ?
       That is a big nope :-(   I was starting to sew my borders on this quilt & call it a finish but I made a BOO BOO !
         Can you see the red polka dot triangle to the far left near the birdhouse.  Well I cut it wrong  DARN IT !   SO I called the quilt shop and ordered a FQ of that fabric ( so glad they still had the fabric )  & once it gets here I can sew this quilt together :-D 

So my plans are to have 2 finished quilts this week . What a great feeling :-D



                   Of course I have my sewing supervisor  to keep me company !

  6. Oops - good thing you could still get a bit more fabric. That's got to be the worst feeling when you realize you've made a mistake like that; happens to all of us.

    I like the Farmer's Market Basket project!
