Michelle and Peggy have done such an excellent job of shepherding the Charity project along that I felt some thank you was in order. I tried not to do it, but I ended up making two One Hour Baskets, one for each. They were quick and look nice and I think Peggy liked hers. I still have to give Michelle hers as she couldn&#8217;t make it to the meeting, but I may see her next week.<\/p>\n<p>I wrote a lot <a href=\"http:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2015\/01\/gift-post-4-2\/\" target=\"_blank\">last year<\/a> about the awesomeness of the Charity Program. You can also check out the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bayareamodernquiltguild.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">BAMQG blog<\/a> to see more about the Charity Program.<\/p>\n<p>As before, I put the handles on the sides to make them more useful (IMO). This time I used fusible fleece, (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2015\/12\/paris-one-hour-baskets-gift-post-2\/\" target=\"_blank\">Last time<\/a> I used Soft &amp; Stable) as the pattern calls for. I think I would put the fusible fleece on both the lining and the exterior, if I used it again. I think Soft &amp; Stable is a better choice for more rigid baskets. Also, I didn&#8217;t use ShapeFlex this time and I would go back to using it next time as I like my baskets more stiff.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_30593\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-30593\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-1451882368136-jpeg\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-30593\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-30593\" src=\"http:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/wp-1451882368136-300x289.jpeg\" alt=\"One Hour Basket #2\" width=\"300\" height=\"289\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/wp-1451882368136-300x289.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/wp-1451882368136-768x739.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/wp-1451882368136-1024x986.jpeg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 85vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-30593\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">One Hour Basket #2<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The pattern for the One Hour Baskets is on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.craftsy.com\/pattern\/sewing\/home-decor\/1-hour-basket-tutorial\/136408\" target=\"_blank\">Craftsy<\/a>.
