Trim-as-you-go basket block class

This charming basket block is made with a super accurate trim-as-you-go piecing method and is completed entirely on your sewing machine, including the handle. Each unit of the block is trimmed exactly to size as it is assembled. No cut off points or irregular edges to deal with. You will make one complete block in class. This is a scrap friendly project that goes together in a snap! Materials list for nine block sample quilt included in the instructions. This class is a fundraiser for Lollypop Farm Humane Society and is a tax deductible charitable contribution. Thank you for helping the animals at Lollypop!
