I used to teach a braided border class, back in the early 1990's. Then in Georgia Bonesteel's "Bright Ideas for Lap Quilting" she had a quilt and the instructions that showed how to piece the rows together without cutting off the ends. I showed an all beige one awhile back that I made with this method. I squared up these samples a couple months ago but still haven't made them into anything. These are the triangles that didn't work in my Aug. 9th,2007 post titled Progress. You can go to Archives on the right side of my blog and click on the arrow, and then click on Aug 2007 and follow down until you come to the 9th.
More sample basket blocks, 2 sizes, and pieces to continue on.
The first block for my winter Lady of the Lake. I pieced this about 6 years ago so you can see how excited I am about continuing. I have a summer Lady of the Lake and an autumn one already made. I'm too lazy to go back to make links, so you can try the search box at the top, type in Lady of the Lake and click on Search Blog and it will take you to my Oct. 12 post for pictures of both of them.
For one of my Nancy Crow workshops we were to bring our favorite block pieced in black and white. The block on the left is Lady of the Lake and that is the one I ended up taking with me.
See you tomorrow with 5 more parts.
