Yes, I am in another swap. This one is the Fabric Basket Swap. Here is what I made for my secret partner:
 |
| Front and back with a bit of a fluke fussy cutting!! |
Yes, I made a Divided Basket from the awesome Noodlehead pattern. If you buy one pattern this year, make it this one! Brilliant pattern and all the while I was sewing it, I kept wondering how she can be so clever to come up with the method to sew this!! I am in awe of her!
Anyways, back to the
Fabric Basket Swap. My partner wanted a "happy, lovely, flower, romantic basket". Do you think this fabric fits that brief? Hope so. Pink isn't normally my thing but I've been making lots of things with pink recently (for other people I may add!). Weird but somewhat satisfying at the same time!
I love making baskets and buckets. Here are just a few I have made in the past:
 |
| A Cuppa and a Catch Up Nesting Bowls |
 |
| Bucket pattern from 1/4" Mark |
 |
| Basket pattern from Pink Penguin |

Hopefully my partner likes her floral basket so I can get it into the post! If she doesn't, I have more fabric that I can make a another one.

Love this divided basket Amy - by coincidence I bought this pattern last week after seeing it on Dandelion Liz's blog, which reminded me of other times I have seen it and coveted it. Gorgeous work x
I think she will just love the basket, the colors are wonderful. All your basket are great.
Looks beautiful Amy! I'm sure your partner will love it.
