One job I completed during the last few stress filled weeks was finishing and delivering the "Purple Passion" basket. Strangely, I didn't take any pictures! Nancy Ota took this image after I delivered the basket - she also weighed and measured it.
The basket measures 15 x 23 x 9.5 deep and weighs 25 pounds. There are about 78 yards of fabric - fat quarters, half yards, yards, more than a yard and a bundle of scraps (anything that doesn't measure the "cuts" mentioned or has a chunk cut out). I tucked in some silk scraps from Talbott Ties outlet and someone donated a package of 100 pre-cut 5" squares. I expect to see at least one purple quilt at Show & Tell this coming year!
Click "Purple Passion" on the sidebar to see a few of the items included in the basket.
Thanks to everyone who donated to this basket - you forced me to buy a larger basket!
