Petal Baskets - 4 or 6, Reg or Sm
$ 36.00
Have you seen my new video on these templates?
This comes in 2 styles (4 Petal or 6 Petal) and 2 sizes (Reg or Sm).
They make great baskets for your favorite tools & to help you get organized. Add napkins, utensils, rolls & other foods to set a pretty table. Or turn them into cute bags to carry. Use pretty or cool fabrics for everyday use or make them special for the holidays! Turn them into fun trick or treat pumpkin bags or add bunny ears & a face for a funny bunny bag. Or for Christmas, add pointy ears and a funny grin to make an adorable elf bag or basket.
Much like my Box Bag Template or Long Box Template, the points come together at the base. But these have curves!
The 4 Petal (Reg & Sm) shows off more of your fabric & has less curve to the bag.
The 6 Petal (Reg & Sm) is perfect to make from scraps & the basket has more of a curve.
Add handles or even a drawstring at the top to make it into a practical bag.
Check out the pics for inspiration. Notice the Gnome Stocking? I made that using my Winner Designs Medium Stocking and the 6 Petal Template for the beard.
Darla made the adorable Halloween pumpkins & all of the Easter baskets with their cute goodies - love them!
I made the Doggie Basket using SF101 on the outside and Fusible Fleece for the lining. To really use it, I'd replace the fleece with Fusible Foam or add another layer of Fusible Fleece along with the SF101 on the outside.
The type of interfacing will make some difference as will your seam allowance & how well you press when it comes to dimensions.
Check out the difference between the small 6 Petal Pumpkin (fusible foam) & Red White & Blue (only SF101).
