[ATTACH=CONFIG]301160[/ATTACH]
Cut cca. 2,5 cm semi hard batting strips [ATTACH=CONFIG]301162[/ATTACH] Cut stripes of different fabric cca. 6 cm . [ATTACH=CONFIG]301166[/ATTACH] Iron a paper-glue strips to the edge of the strip [ATTACH=CONFIG]301168[/ATTACH] I prepare the strip [ATTACH=CONFIG]301169[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]301170[/ATTACH] I wove the bottom... [ATTACH=CONFIG]301174[/ATTACH] ...and the sides [ATTACH=CONFIG]301176[/ATTACH] Before completion cut the top [ATTACH=CONFIG]301178[/ATTACH] Finally ending the top with a binding. Remark: You may make extra box with (wide)satin stripes too. |
This is really cool!! What is the finished width of the strips (english) looks like maybe 1 inch? Thank you

Looks like a very cool technique. If you did it flat instead of a box, I think it would make a super envelope for a nook, ereader, Ipad etc. Thanks for sharing!:thumbup:

Great tut, thanks a bunch.:thumbup:
|
Wow, this is really cool! I've made a few woven fabric bowls. I'd love to make this one! Thank you for the tute!
|
Thank You Enci, for the tute.
I am going to make one into wastebasket for sewing room. |
dang..that looks like FUN....might have to give that a go for EAster!
|
question please..I realize you are not in the USA, but was wondering, if instead of using the hard batting, you could use something like Timtex or fast2fuse? They are the stiff interfacing used to make tote bags/purses!
|
Good work! Always love to see ideas. Thanks for showing us.
|
Oh, you are giving me ideas. No time, but oh it's going to be fun. Now which fabric, maybe the pink print with black/white geometric design, or the gold and brown batik, and just maybe the scrappy look. The possibilities are endless.
|
What a wonderful way to use up scraps of batting and the end result is simply stunning!
|
Thank you for the tutorial...so many possibilities!!
|
Love.Lov..Love this! I WILL make one of these. Thank you for the tutorial.
|
Great job on the tute,I am thinking of a lot of ways to use this technique.Thank you

Thank you for sharing your tutorial! Love the baskets!
|
What a wonderful project! And as Jacquie said, these would make ideal Easter baskets. Thank you for the great tutorial.
|
This is terrific! And what a neat way to get to show off your machine's fancy stitches too! I love Tartan's idea of making a kindle / nook case too. Really Enci, your project idea could apply to so many other applications, it's wonderful! Thank you for sharing!
|
I love this...what a great idea and thankyou for sharing...
|
This great and I've saved it for a future project!!!! One question "paper glue strips?" I'm not familiar with this, do we have it here in the states? Maybe a dumb question?
|
the pattern I have said to use the timtex and you make a casing for the timtex............
|
I am going to have to try one of these, thanks for the tute.
|
This is a great idea! I think I will make an Easter basket !
