These are some baskets I put together. The handles move they are Larger size around six inches with a 10 inch handle. I put together sewing together at bottom then sides with zig zag. Not sure I got them perfect but they work.

Thanks! I clip them grab them off everything and my Aunt gave me some from my GM stuff. My GM was a weaver belonged to the guild she had a shop till she was in her mid eighties. I loved digging into her button patch she actually had a steamer trunk full of buttons and then some. That really makes one drool. Stove boxes with mens ties, hosiery, wool,cotton I loved going to GM house and shop. Some of those old antique buttons my Aunt still has. They was fun to grab a few of from time to time as they were like jewerly to me as a teen.

So pretty. You are the first that I have seen to make the handles movable. Great idea.

Thank you your so nice.The handles are button holes so would not have to move but I thought might be nice to move them and place a potted plant in for gift giving beyond Easter. I like trying for different opps not that my brain will do it all the time but it is nice to have 2 or 3 uses.
