Park City Girl is holding a Virtual Quilt Festival this week. This is my entry. It is one of my favorite quilts because I love basket quilts, i love blue-and-yellow color combos, and this is the only one of my quilts that ever appeared on a magazine cover. It was on the cover of Fons and Porter's For the Love of Quilting (now Fons and Porter's Love of Quilting) in the Spring of 2001, I think. I can't read the date in the photo below, and I don't feel like going upstairs and finding a copy of the mag.

What an incredible quilt. It was certainly deserving of being a cover quilt. Love the blue and yellow.

It's beautiful! I love that the baskets are set on opposite colors instead of white like usual :) Thanks for sharing!

Susan,
What a pretty basket quilt- I love blue and yellow together- they always look so happy together.
It sounds like you have been a busy girl- hope you continue to enjoy a busy happy weekend with a little quilt fun thrown in with all that satisfying tidying.
Regards,
Anna

I never knew that about you!!! I remember that quilt very well, and was inspired by it to start collecting blues and yellows! My gosh, I feel like I am friends with a rock star.
