Mini basket quilt(Sweet Pickins)
 

It measures in at about 26 x 32, it was made from the scraps of my Cherry blocks quilt that you can see here http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...k-t222992.html . The cherry quilt is almost quilted, its just been too stinking hot to stand in front of the frame with all those hot lights blaring. And of course there's other things to make the house hot like canning Zucchini Marmalade. You can find the recipe here http://www.newlyweds-blog.com/2010/0...ini-marmalade/ .

Oh dear! We have so much in common. I love making jams, jellies and relishes too. Gardening takes up most of my mornings now. It is so hot I have to go out at dawn to keep it all trimmed and tidy out there. We have cherry trees and I freeze them and make jelly. I think this year I will try the crabapple jelly. They are falling all over out there. Any good recipe for that?

I love the little quilt. So darling and such nice work.

very pretty quilt.. nice

I love it!!

Your little quilt is darling!! Love it.

Darling quilt! Your marmalade looks yummy too! :)

I'm amazed at those itty-bitty half-square triangles! One 32nd of an inch makes them off! Wow!

That's so adorable-would drive me crazy to work with such small pieces.

Such a pretty quilt and the jam's look so good.

Crabapple! I just saw one somewhere yesterday. And I thought maybe I should do something with the Crab Apples in the back yard....great minds think alike! Now where did I see that recipe......

How gorgeous!! The quilt, the garden and the marmalade!! I love mini's and cherrries and I also enjoy canning. Today it is green beans, but I think I will freeze this batch.

The Hst's weren't really that hard, they were cut off corners from another project, all I had to do was square them up. It does take some very slow sewing to get them into a block, but well worth the slower speed.

Thanks! I wouldn't say I enjoy canning, but it does have its satisfaction factor. I'm doing frozen beans today also! Yeah! I think.....

What a sweet looking quilt!!

I love you quilt and your artistic pictures of it! Thanks for sharing with us.

Would you share your marmelade recipe? I have zucchini///

Beautiful basket quilt! Also, I printed out the recipe for zucchini marmalade. Always looking for a way to use zucchini. Thanks.

What a cute quilt--and so's the cherry quilt. Thanks for sharing.

That is so pretty. I love it.

What a precise job on piecing. It is very striking. Hope to be able to achieve that kind of perfection in my quilting lifetime. Have to ck. on your rec. too. Photo of your marmalade looks good. I made lots of strawberry jam and also strawb. pies last month. We're in a particularly hot/humid spell now too. Trying to keep up with the weeds after working all day is a challenge.

Very cute!!
