Sue's basket.

Simply HAD to make one. It stitches like a treat, hardest part is sewing the seams together. Now I have to go look for a matching ribbon. Thanks Sue!

Woo hoo - I must admit you put the wind up me when you said you were going to make this one! It is a gorgeous colour. I think it needs quite a wide ribbon to make a fat bow.

It's a muslin type of fabric, I ironed an interlining to it and used a layer of very thin batting between the stabiliser and the fabric, which makes the whole thing firm and still pliable. I put all 5 parts in my 240x200 hoop.
I agree with the nice fat bow, that would make it just perfect.

Or small chocolate Easter eggs, but fortunately there's not a bit of chocolate in the house :)
by jussyc 02 Mar 2012
Small easter eggs with a chick or the bunny design would look fab. Great gift. No choccy in the house? I have a special place for choccy in the fridge. :)

Lovely mops. It really is a nice size. I must just say here how very much I enjoy watching the two of you (you and suedewsbury) working together. It's as beautiful as the projects you both make.

I'm impressed - as you said you like to put your bowls in the dishwasher - Hehehe! This is a basket, but pretty much the same as a bowl - it lookes great holding all your same color thread.

I was surprised myself! Only thing I can say they take up far less time than an FSL one, but I might have to eat my words.
Thanks, Shirlene, flowers for you and everybody else.

Thank you. That's just for the picture they're back in the drawer. I'll use it for an Easter present, filled with chocolates.
