Quilt patterns of Dutch and Quaker creation were usually of complicated designs, while New England housewives made their quilt patterns more simple but none less charming. Of the New England favorites none is more delightful than the fruit basket or cherry basket as it was called in some of its later versions. Six yards of white and three yards of colored material are needed to produce this quilt. It was one of the most popular of the quaint old designs that have been handed down to modern housewives.

The squares for fruit basket should be 12 inches in diameter. To the quilt 25 pieced blocks, plain half blocks, four completer plain quarter blocks are required. A six-inch border of solid color or white outlines the gay squares. This quaint old quilting custom 1s being revived by Sears, Roebuck Co. of Brooklyn, which is now conducting a contest with generous rewards for the winners.

Contestants will have an opportunity to compete for local, regional and national prizes. The grand national prize of $1,000 for the best quilt entered in country-wide contest will be presented by Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt.
