Look Mom!!

My mom asked for a basket liner for her yarn basket for Mother's Day. She reminded me yesterday that she was still waiting. Oops! I got right on it. The outer fabric is reused, it was once the skirt for my son Leo's basinette. I hope you like it Mom!!

How could she not like it? There's little Danish or Tyrolean people inside, waiting to guard her yarn. I think that, despite their cuteness, the little Danish (or Tyrolean) people will guard the yarn quite fiercely, if necessary.

That's so well done! You mentioned a pattern for the bicycle basket. Is it a pattern the rest of us can get?

Thanks Katie!
Regarding that basket liner pattern that I designed,
I am getting so many orders for the basket liner that I am thinking about manufacture... I don't think I can share that one.

This is too cute. That inside fabric is one of my favorites.

I love this. I am scared to try doing stiff shaped sewn containers because I imagine the interfacing must be hard to work with.

So cute!

Hey Angelina-
No need to fear - especially if you use an iron-on interfacing (as I did for this basket liner) - so easy and adds just the right amount of weight. The sew in kind is easy too - you just need to plan for that extra step of sewing it in.
