    Thanks, Honchey. I do a lot of scissor cutting so I'm interested.

    Just finished block #3 the basket. I was dreading it, but it atually turned out ok, except I don't have much left on the side for the seam allowances. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

    I'm doing the rotary cutting for most of the blocks, I do want to pp some later on though.

    A couple of us had that problem. I think we used the wrong template piece and had to redo it. It's a quick fix.

    gcathie...I love your basket. It just looks so country. The colors are really pretty.

    Received this overnite on my e-mail. Thought it might help some of you still having trouble with your handles for the baskets. I have not tried this method, but looks easy enough.

    Turn your sound up and enjoy.

    Oh My, wish I had seen this when I done mine... looks soooo much easier. Thanks for showing that to us, I will definitely use this on the next one. Now I just have to do blocks 4- whatever one we are on to catch up :? I will definitely try to do that in the next month as my parents stuff is here but not yet my parents so if I catch up before they are completely in maybe she will keep me motivated enough to stay caught up. She is wanting to learn how to quilt too, so maybe we can learn some of this stuff together.
