Comments
The Easy Piecers Bee made this quilt specifically for the Silent Auction, where we also have a small sample. Both are available for bidding. We had so much fun making our individual blocks and quilting them that we hope the new owner recognizes it took many hours and much camaraderie to accomplish our "Pretty Baskets".
