I want to thank all of you who gave me advice on how to solve my problem. I knew all of you could help.
I LOVE it. You said you did it from a pic. Where did you find it? What size is it? I would love to do one for a "me" project. Right now I am finishing B"day quilts for family.
Katie, the orig. pix was in an email to us & I don't feel right sending her pix out now. I really can't find it now anyway. Why don't you print mine out & use it as a guide?
You can do this yourself by just making it up. My finished pc. is 21 x 28 1/2". I started with a background pc. larger then trimmed it down once the flowers were on. I wish I had made mine a little wider though. I then drew my own basket using the orig. as a model. I put batting behind the basket then FMQ it before putting it on the background. That gave it dimension. I put a bit of fiberfill in a few yo yos to give a few flowers dimension. This is great fun to make.
I'd be happy to help if you need it. Just PM me.
Just dive in & have fun with it. You'll love it.
Pat
