They Have Many Other Uses As Well!
Pretty holiday fabrics make these charming baskets perfect for giving. Fill them with baked goods or other goodies for just about anyone on your list.
The buckets are also wonderful filled with greens for holiday decor, used as serving baskets for cookies and other goodies, and for storage in the sewing room and elsewhere any time of the year.
They make cute Easter baskets, too, and you’re sure to find many other uses, as well. Simply choose fabric that fits how you plan to use them.
Plus, they’re quick to make and can be made with or without the drawstring closure.
Annie’s Soft and Stable stabilizer gives the baskets structure, while large buttons allow the handles to fold down for filling.
The finished baskets, from The Wooden Bear, are about 6″ x 6″ x 6″ without the handle.

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!
