I just started making one too in red, blue, brown, and cream. I have a plan for about 160 baskets. How many do you have in yours? More, I think but I couldn't really tell from the photos. I expect it to take some time but I will enjoy a little applique for a change. I'll definitely watch for your progress. Good luck finishing.SGBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07854039744452298002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5297789041481934828.post-12332962361242620722014-07-02T07:39:13.864-07:002014-07-02T07:39:13.864-07:00Reading this post makes me want to do some hand qu...Reading this post makes me want to do some hand quilting - if only it were cooler.

I never would have thought mustard thread but it works. I think I'll jump out of my box and try something new with a small wall hanging!

I like that you're using the mustard thread - what a cool idea! It would instantly impart "homespun" warmth. Your quilting is just amazing - and you've made really good progress.<br /><br />My kids gave up giving me stuff to mend. They called my mending pile the "they'll grow out of it" pile! The only person that thinks I ought to mend is my DH. He just won't let me slough it off.

Your quilting is perfect and the mustard colored thread is really evoking the feeling you're looking for.
