Tisket A Tasket Redwork

Do you remember the BunnyHill free BOM from 2009? I did mine in redwork instead of the applique. I had most of this put together last spring but it got put aside without finishing it. Well I finally got it all completed a couple weeks ago. Just a little slow in taking a picture and posting.

The blocks and layout are something I figured out on my own, sorry I don't have a pattern to direct you to. I did a simple meander quilting so I don't take away from the stitcheries. This is a prefect quilt for Feb, all about red!

Happy Quilting.
