Orphan quilt blocks + Free-motion = Fabric baskets

Orphan quilt blocks. I think we all have a few. At the Choo Choo Quilters guild meeting this month, we had a demonstration on making a fabric basket.

Orphan blocks make their way into useful Fabric Baskets.

These little baskets are a perfect, practical and functional solution for orphan quilt blocks... or your free-motion warm-up samples (I have a stack of them!). These baskets make great gifts and, by using seasonal or novelty fabrics, you could make festive table centerpieces and decorations for every occasion and season.

Looking for a great little project on which to practice your free-motion quilting designs? This is a good one!
