Wow Karen, that's fabulous!! Can you tell us the dimensions of this particular basket? I don't own that book but would like to try to make one of these. How many feet do you think you wrapped of the clothesline? Did you have a plan for the break in the color and then another break - cause it looks like it was carefully calculated. How did you do that? Just spectacular, I'm amazed at the skills that are shared on this board, what an amazing group of people!!
