Hello, friends! Today I’m sharing the Quilt Block of the Month April 2023. This month’s block is a simple (but cute) basket block. You can use just a couple of fabrics or make it as scrappy as you’d like! Keep reading for all of the details and to download this month’s pattern.
Quilt Block of the Month April 2023
April Block and Details
I do love a fun basket block! Hint: there will be another basket block for this quilt later in the year. I used fabrics from Emma and Favorite Things for my large block and fabrics from Favorite Things for my small block. If you have extra half-square triangles and want to make scrappy baskets, this is the perfect place to use them! Download the April block pattern PDF here or click on the button below.

Thank you, Sherri! This looks like a fun block to make. I am having a good time making these blocks and appreciate you giving these free patterns. It is also fun to see on Facebook the variety of the blocks.
