These are fun to make and a great way to use up selvages and some small scraps of fabric too (for the base, top binding and lining). These baskets can be used for all kinds of things, such as a thread catcher, a pen and pencil container, small project container and more.
I like to add some button embellishments where there is a white space on the selvages. This not only looks good, but covers up such a large white space. |
This is the back side. |
The side of the basket. |
my pdf pattern on Makerist. I show you several ways to sew the selvages. My way is a bit different than others I have seen.

Those baskets are adorable. You're always making cute/pretty and fun items.
