Basket Sewing PDF Pattern for a Seven-Hexagon Quilt-as-You-Go Bowl and an Optional Needle-Keeper Lid
This basket sewing pattern turns seven quilt-as-you-go hexagons into a soft bowl for keeping threads and sewing clips together. The PDF project creates a little container that can sit beside your stitching, with an optional lid for turning the finished basket into a sewing caddy.
The lid design adds a felt needle-keeper and a button-and-loop closure. The finished basket is soft and can lie flat when empty; filled baskets can stack on a shelf. Select the PDF pattern alone or the bundle that also includes an acrylic template set.
