Once the holiday hiatus was over, 2016 started out with more quilt group activities. In January we got two more blocks done on this quilt. Block #16 is Flower Basket and has an applique handle on a white triangle that is then pieced to the rest of the basket sections. Then the leaves and flowers are appliqued on top to make a 9″ x 9″ block. ShaRee and Terry picked the same fabric, but I had to be different and went with green and orange instead of green and pink.

Two weeks later we moved on to Block #17, Union Square, which is also 9″ x 9″. It is a completely pieced block and we deviated from the prescribed colors of pink, yellow, and green by going with teal and lime. And we love it! The photos make the background look pink, but it’s really white.
