Background Fabric & Four-Patches

 After visiting my brother in Omaha today, I stopped at Hobby Lobby and got 5 yards of 108"-wide white-on-white fabric for the background of the Hanging Gardens quilt.  It was only $7.99 a yard, and very nice quality fabric.

When I got home, I cut all the background pieces, then sewed together all the light and dark squares for the tops of the 'baskets'.  I put two sets of doubles together to make a couple of four-patches... and that was enough for today.  I used up two full yards of that 108"-wide white-on-white fabric (that's the equivalent of about 4 ½ yards of 44"-wide fabric), cutting 476 pieces.
