When I was looking for the piping for the pillows the other day, I came across this hank of cotton rope.
I knew immediately I wanted to make a basket!
I circled around and around-it is very meditative
and then when there were only a few yards left,
I added the handles and finished off with the little flourishes
on the side to secure the end of the rope.
Very satisfying, if I do say so myself!
Today, I will be finish piecing the gingham quilt top and then work on some more indigo and linen star blocks! What are you up to today?

ReplyDeleteAwesome-with little flourishes no less!
ReplyDeleteLooks fantastic! Are the rope strands sewn together ?
ReplyDeleteDid you sew that by hand or machine? It's gorgeous. Let's see. Today will be another day of trying to stay cool. I think we're going to wander around Scheels later and of course I'll be crocheting the edging for my shawl for the wedding.

That is one beautiful basket. Well done. I made a few several (ok many) years ago but none looked that good. Congrats on beautiful finished project.
