Here is a very basic tutorial that a good friend of mine designed for a very sweet little fabric basket. Very quick and gratifying. I used oilcloth for the outside and a cotton for the inside but it would be possible to use only cotton as well (or even nicer would be linen). If using cottons or linens I would recommend using interfacing to make it stiff enough to stand up on it’s own. The paper clips are used to avoid getting little pin holes in the plasticized material or oilcloth. Please let me know if I wasn’t clear on any of my instructions (I know the corner part is a bit hard to see in the photo).

this is the best!! 🙂 thanks for putting it up. Theres always use for little boxes in the house (Fra calls me box lady), sorting all those little things and looking cute at the same time. 😀 looks easy enough to put together too. (looking up what interfacing means or maybe i’ll just get me some pretty oilcloth)
Thank you for the tutorial… these are really cute and would make great gifts or gift containers.
I am just beginning sewing but am going to try and make these in several different sizes, but I am having a hard time seeing the sewing of the corner? Can you explain it more or give a different picture?
They look so cute. I like such baskets a lot.
Really adorable, can hardly wait to try one. Thank you for great instructions!

What fun these are to make. I have been making them in coordinating cotton prints and they are completely reversible. I am using fusible fleece for the inside. Making them in different sizes is fun. Fill them with goodies of your choice and you have an adoreable gift basket!

Lovely easy project – my first with oilcloth. I love it Thank you!
This looks pretty easy! Except the corner, I may have to be in the process to fully understand how that part was done. Thanks for the tutorial. These are useful and very cute.
Great tutorial!! I just saw this today, got inspired, and promptly ran to my sewing machine and made two baskets. 🙂 They turned out GREAT. Thank you for posting this!!!
Great to hear!
just what Im looking for …. how does the part with the corner go?
Such a darling little box. I’ve done three sizes of them and find them almost addictive! Thanks for the great tutorial.
Your tutorial is simple and so easy to follow. Thank you for sharing. Love it ❤. Will definitely try it.
This was fantastic! I made a larger version for an Easter basket, and it worked out lovely!
Thank you for posting!
