I've done enough of these Pies and Tarts blocks to put them on the wall to get a sense of how they are going to look and I'm really liking them a lot. I have changed some of the backgrounds to what was provided in the
bom. The small circles will be appliqued on after the blocks are joined.
And a little project on the side are these
itty bitty baskets blocks from
this book. I think I'll call them Petite Baskets because they are small, they'll probably be 6" finished. As
Kathie says, they are addictive, so thanks for the inspiration Kathie, they're a good way to showcase lovely fabrics.
We've had a wet and windy weekend and the temperature has dropped so that's compelling me to get back to some
handquilting. It's been too long since I've done any so I'm looking forward to it.

Janet.. I have been watching your progress and you are right they are awesome and well worth all the wonderful work you are putting into them!! your baskets are just adorable as well!!
Have I told you, Janet - I have been receiving the Pies and Tarts, too - haven't started! Maybe a long way off - I have been a bit disappointed with some of the fabrics - I have always loved repros, but must say I have always gone for the clearer, prettier ones. I am just waiting on the little baskets pattern, too - soooo, looks like we have lots in common - or should I say 'lots more' in common!
Hugs - Lurline♥
Oh I love these!!
The first time I saw the Pies and Tarts I really needed them... I still dont; have them yet *giggle* They're so amazing!!
Yours are looking spectacular!!
Love your dear baskets too!

The Pies and Tarts quilt is very fun to look at, you just have to stop and see what fabrics were used. Very Cool...
Crispy
Your pies and tarts blocks look just yummy!! I love the layout and the colors are great. It is going to be one gorgeous quilt when complete. The baskets look like a sister quilt to the pies and tarts.
The peis and tarts quilt is just lovely! I want to do one of them sometime also but will probably use my own fabrics.
The pies and tarts quilt is looking yummy.
Wow...as usual I'm blown away by how much you've gotten done! Are you SuperQuiltingWoman or what?!?!?
Love how the Pies & Tarts blocks are looking. I'm going to change some of my backgrounds as well.
I have the book with the basket quilt in it and that is on my list too! :o)
Your Pies and Tarts are just wonderful...love them. Those little baskets keep calling my name. I may just have to start those...it will be a life time project I think.
Pies and tarts is turning out amazing! Great job.
Both projects are looking great!
Two absolutely beautiful quilts! Good inspriation for me to get back to my pies.
They're both beautiful. I especially love the Pies and Tarts quilt, though. Too pretty!
I love your "pies & tarts" - they are adorable. And, the baskets are definitely addicting.
Your pies and tarts are just wonderful! To see them on the design wall give a great idea what look you are going to get and it will be awesome.
Pies and tarts, I like the name and the quilt is coming along beautifully. I can't wait to see it completed.
After watching progress and now seeng the quilt...stunning! Oh....been watching Kathie and those little baskets too.
Far out check out how many people are checking you out ;)
The Pies and Tarts look neat, so much fun playing before the actual piecing begins. Have imagined them in a bright colourway with white background or a black on white background. Right back to baby knitting *sigh*
Great progress on Pies and Tarts - it looks fantastic. And sweet little baskets! Love it...
