I whipped up a couple of these adorable storage baskets for my Make Mine Modern swap partner this weekend. I used this
seriously quick and easy tutorial from Pink Penguin. It only took me two hours to make both of them, and that was with a lot of distractions (granted, there are
always plenty of distractions around here). I could see this becoming one of my go-to items, perfect for last-minute gifts.

One of the requirements for this swap is an item to decorate my partner's sewing space. These should be good for storing thread or other notions, so I can check that off the list! And I have my partner's fabric already (we have to swap a total of 1.5 yards of fabric as well). So that just leaves the main part of the swap, my "handmade item," and I think I'm working toward a plan there as well. It sure is nice to have made some progress on this swap.

Hi Lee! I love these! I have made one with burlap but now I surely make also with other fabrics!

ReplyDeleteThese are so cute! Just perfect for sewing room storage. It is so nice to start AND finish a project in one day, isn't it (even with distractions!)? Thanks for sharing the tutorial, too -- I'll put this one on my list!
