You have embroidered such lovely baskets. I'd set them on point so they were up right and make the setting triangles to go with them. I'd put a very narrow sashing in between them and bind it with the same color as the sashing.I use a pastel that was in the baskets but first, I'd sit back and enjoy their beauty for a few days, then decide what to do.

I would also consider setting them on point, so the baskets are going all in one direction. Lovely work!!

If I had done those blocks, I would set them on point and use spacer blocks , quilt a basket pattern in the blank blocks and make it big enough for my bed! The blocks are beautiful, and you have done a wonderful job on them. It could be an heirloom for those who live long after you are gone many years from now. I love embroidered blocks and have some to put together, so I hope to see what you do with this one. Whatever you do, good luck and enjoy it! Blessings.
