Making the block

 each side of line. Cut on line, press and trim units to 1-1/2"

2. Prepare basket handle by turning under 1/4" on each long side
of 1" bias strip. Place handle on light triangle and hand stitch in place. 

3. Layout units using diagram and piece together. 

4. Add 4-1/2" light strips to each side of block center. Add
light 6-1/2" strips to top and bottom of block. 

5. Layer block, batting and back together. Machine or hand 
quilt. Important note - Once your block is quilted trim to
