    Hurray !!!!!

    This month is my turn to be the queen bee. So I wont be doing any block this month. But will be giving

    instructions to all my sunny bee members.

    First of all I thank Nikhat who introduced me to Desi quilters. Its really a lively active group. I reallyenjoy being part of this group. All the activities of this group remind me about my college days, where

    we friends use to chat do some studies, sharing our thoughts, off course some useless time pass,

    without little time pass there is no joy in any work .

    In my view, when you say sunny its ice cream, beach and blooming of flowers etc

    Currently I am residing in Bangalore, where we see bright sun only in summer, in the beginning of

    summer all trees blooms and its very soothing to eyes.

    Thats the reason I am choosing flower basket as my sunny block, hope it wont be difficult to make, just

    follow some simple instruction. This is not my original idea, this instruction I got it from internet.

    Please use cotton fabric and test for color bleeding before using.

    Completed Basket Block will measure 20 inch `` X 20 inch ``

    Make Half-Square Triangle Units for the Basket Quilt Blocks

    After stitching 2 triangles together each should measure 4-1/2" square

    Side bar Units

    Referring to the illustration, sew a triangle cut from smaller brown squares to the end of each

    long background bar. Notice that units are mirror images of each other.

    Assemble the Basket Quilt Block

    1. Refer to the illustration. Assemble the block by sewing units together as shown, movingfrom left to right in the top row, and then from left to right again in the bottom row.

    2. When possible, press seam allowances in adjacent rows in opposite directions.3. Fold the final background triangle in half to find its midpoint before matching and sewing

    it to the lower right corner of the basket block.

    Completed block will look like this.
