Basket Quilt Block

"The basket quilt block has a multitude of variations. This version of the block keeps it simple and easy to make for beginners using half square triangles and two rectangle pieces. The block is easy to construct, creating 4 smaller blocks and then sewing them together like a traditional 4 patch. Using two contrasting fabric choices really makes these baskets pop. I've got a free printable cutting chart for 4 basic sized blocks (3", 6", 9", & 12")."
