Little Linen Basket By Susie

Have you had a chance to try making an

origami butterfly yet?
It's this month's theme for the 

Across The Pond Sew Along.

As soon as I had made my butterfly,

I wondered where it might land.

I loved Susie's idea to attach it to a

darling little fabric basket!

Would you believe...

Susie has actually created

a FREE TUTORIAL for making this

Leaf N Linen Basket?

It's available right this minute to download, on Craftsy!

I have to admit it...

I've got a "thing" for little containers.

Whether it's pouches or tins,

boxes or baskets,

I love to collect them.

They're fun to use for keeping little things in one place.

I had sew much fun making this little basket,

and the instructions were very easy to follow.

I'm thrilled with the quilted linen exterior.

I just pulled out the necessary supplies,

and in less than an hour,

I had a finished basket for my butterfly.

I love looking at it from all angles.

The quilting design looks cool on the sides,

dontcha think?

This little piece of cute will be my new sewing buddy.

I can get lots more notions in there,

you know.

After I'm finished with my project,

I think I'll use it to keep some candy handy!

I wish I could share some candy,

or some sewing time, with you.

Thank goodness for Craftsy...we can ALL enjoy 

Susie's sweet Leaf N Linen Basket pattern!
