N Is For Noodlehead - My Latest Divided Basket

Hello, Friends - 

I've just got time to check in for a quick post today!

I've got photos of my latest installment

in the series of Divided Baskets

from the awesome Noodlehead pattern.

For this version,

I used some of the orchid prints in

Heather Ross's Briar Rose line.

{Here is the back view of the basket...}

This pretty basket is a gift

to welcome a lovely new baby girl!

I chose to decorate the basket

with her initial...N.

I used a panel from Lakehouse Dry Goods,

found here at Desperate Quilters,

printed in bronze to look like cross-stitch.

I had a bit of Jennifer Paganelli fabric

from one of her early lines called Bell Bottoms.

I liked the way it looked

as an accent for the pocket and handles.

{I love blending unexpected prints from unrelated fabrics!}

I really love making these baskets for new moms.

They add a pretty storage option

for little diapers, little books,

little socks and shoes,

and so much more.

Look closely at the Briar Rose prints...

do you see them???

That's right...SHAMROCKS!

They fit right in with this month's

Across the Pond Sew Along theme!

Have you made something with shamrocks, too?
Don't forget to add your photos to the Flickr group!

Until next time...happy stitching!
