That's what I'm thinking of naming this quilt when it's done. It's not an Amish quilt unless the quilter is Amish. These blocks are from a swap in 2010. I decided to center them with a larger Amish Basket block. I'll use black for corner triangles on that block.
But then, to sash or not sash? I'm thinking maybe this gray. I had one extra block, so the red one (mine) will be used on the back as a label. I'm thinking of big-stitch quilting it with black thread on the brights -- definitely not Amish.
It will be simmering on the design wall for a while, as I have other things taking priority. But I am excited to at least get the blocks out of their bag, make the large basket, etc.
