Nearly Insane Edge Block 88 - Basket Block

Block 88 - Basket Block, Nearly Insane Quilt

You may remember that one of the first blocks that I did for my Nearly Insane Quilt was a whole Basket Block, Block 41.  That was an Apple Basket, this one is a Flower Basket, well, at least half of one. On that post, I showed you how I put it together, and how I made the bias strip for the handle. 

There is the other half of this block yet to do in the future, please remind me that I need to do the reverse of this one, as it will be on the opposite edge of the quilt ....
