They Make Great Gifts, Too!

These attractive baskets have so many uses around the home. Put them to work in the sewing room, bathroom, office, nursery, and more.

They also make wonderful gift baskets and can easily become your go-to for baby showers, housewarmings, bridal showers, and other occasions. You may also want to make extras to have on hand for last-minute gifts.

The two sizes nest nicely when not in use. Mix and match up to 5 fabrics for each pair for a lovely coordinated look. These are great for showcasing favorite fabric collections.

If you’re new to fabric baskets, you’ll learn all the basics while making these. Excellent instructions walk you through every step. You’ll find additional tips for sewing in 3D here.

Designer Anne Adams from Sew 4 Home provides instructions for two basket sizes:

Large – 7 1/2″ across
Small – 6″ across

PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest has featured many patterns from vendors participating in the Craftsy Marketplace, most of which have been deleted by Craftsy. It's going to take awhile for us to hunt down new sources for those patterns. In the meantime there are many links to patterns on our site that no longer work. We apologize if this article contains one or more of those links and appreciate your patience while we straighten things out. Thank you!

PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest does not sell or otherwise provide patterns directly. We showcase patterns and projects from various vendors, bloggers and other sources. Please make a note of where you access a pattern (the link in the yellow box toward the end of each Quilting Digest article). That way you can contact Support for that source if you have downloading problems or other issues. Thank you!
