I’ve been meaning to make this little patchwork baskety thing for ages, and I’m glad I sorted myself out and did it. I thought it was going to involve complicated sewing, but actually, it was mega easy! Pink Penguin is where you need to go. The sewing tutorial is for a small patchwork basket; I made the larger version.
I really like the interior fabric. I only bought a quantity of 40 cm, which was just enough. It was a bit silly, really, but when I bought it, I hadn’t measured anything, so I had to guess. I want to make one for me; this was for my sister.
I also made her this handmade tote bag. Everyone needs a bag now, don’t they?! I made up the basic pattern having seen similar elsewhere.
This pleated purse was the other thing I made in my sewing flurry. I’m running out of people to make this for now. I have done quite a few in different fabrics. The pleated purse tutorial is this one here.
