Quilt Basket Block for You to Make

Free Weekly Quilt Block

Let’s add a bit more to a basket quilt block from the one we did last week. This quilt block has triangle handle and base.  Nothing says traditional quilt block more than 2 colors. This quilt block has a finished size of eight inches by eight inches. Any two colors will work, anything with white will be perfect.
