Baskets, Celtic Style

Explore the latest in interlaced designs of Celtic scrollwork! These interlaced basket patterns were inspired by the author's interest in Baltimore album applique quilts. Scarlett Rose easily adapted these woven basket patterns into her style of interlaced scrollwork. All the block patterns are interchangeable with the patterns in her first book, CELTIC STYLE FLORAL APPLIQUE. You can choose to make a quilt just like the ones in this book, or you can use the patterns and techniques to come up with your own unique designs. The author not only includes ideas, but also illustrations and patterns that will encourage all who love the art of applique and quiltmaking!

A native Californian, Scarlett Rose has been quilting since 1976. She began teaching in 1986 and travels worldwide. Scarlett has written two books on Celtic applique and has a line of patterns featuring Celtic applique, paper piecing, traditional patchwork, regular appliqué designs and Celtic cross stitch charts. She also designs Celtic full line stencils for quilters and crafters.

Scarlett's newest product line features Celtic knotwork designs preprinted on fabric, ready for sashiko (running stitch) or decorative embroidery stitching. These Celtic designs are from her Legend of Merlin series.

Her website carries the largest selection of Celtic, fantasy & Asian books, patterns and specialty notions available anywhere and ships internationally.
