Last night as we were sitting around talking, watching tv and playing with the dogs....I got all of the Pink Bargello strip sets cut up! Here they are stacked in a shoebox. :) Now, I just have to sew them into blocks. I had to laugh to myself because she kept talking about how pretty it would be with all that pink! I'm not a big pink fan, I do use it in my quilts but it is not one of my favorites unless it is 1800's pink. She didn't have a clue that it is for her. Mom told me that I should wait until Christmas to give it to her, but I will probably give it to her as soon as it gets quilted....which at my rate it may be Christmas! :)
So we all got up this morning and I fixed a big breakfast for us all. We had Sausage, Bacon, Eggs, Biscuits, Hash Browns, Fried Apples, and Gravy! A very nice family breakfast!
I played around sorting scraps and things like that for a while. I did prep 3 more basket blocks. That is a total of 4. Now I just need to do the applique on them.

You were a busy bee this weekend! I just love those pink blocks, your sister is going to flip when she realizes those blocks were for her.
I am comming there for breakfast!!!!!I love those little applique baskets!!
The pink is so pretty.
Are you going to machine or hand applique them?
Wonderful that your Mother is feeling better...I know you worry when she is away.
Glad you had a good time with your sister, and so glad your mom is feeling better.

Looking forward to seeing the pink quilt finished, ever since having my little girl, I am really liking pink.
Good to hear that your mom is doing OK - hope she gets to rest up some more before going back to work.
Love your little baskets! Where did you find the pattern - or did you design it?
