A tisket, a tasket, a pretty little basket....

It starts with an idea. A small fabric token to recognize the hardwork of our guild volunteers at the 32nd annual quilt show. I call them 'thread baskets' and have started the daunting task of creating 200 baskets.

Thread baskets start with a length of clothesline cord, a neverending supply of fabric, a glue stick, a clothespin and, of course, my sewing machine. It helps if the coffee pot is on and the television is playing in the background.
