I'm so glad you asked this question! I just went through 13 pages to see if this question had been asked and answered since I too was wondering the same thing. Hoping for some help on that!

Wow. Thanks for the great tute. This sure looks better than a dishtowel.

cherrio 12-08-2012 10:12 AM

I make this exactly as you with the addition of a layer of batting. it keeps the rolls warm a bit longer. great both ways!

cherrio 12-08-2012 10:16 AM

yea! the gift is self explanatory this way too. gave one to my sister without anything in it and she said "thanks sis, what is it?" haha so the loaf of any kind of bread is great

Great idea & tks for all the info. This site is so generous with sharing their tutorials & knowledge.

katesnanna 10-20-2013 06:13 AM

Thank you. Great tute.

Pat1969 10-20-2013 09:32 AM

Obviously, I am stupid! It is a great tute! But there are a couple questions that I have. I couldn't tell from the pictures if you trim and notch the curves before or after pressing. And also, what size basket will this fit?
Thank you for this tute and answers to my questions.

This is great, thanks! I'm going to make some this year.

GrammieJan 10-20-2013 06:30 PM

Perfect timing for me! I always make something for my step-dtr and dils;
they like my hand made gifts. I have been trying to think of what to make
for them this Christmas. And I want one too! Thank you for posting this great project.

GrammieJan 10-20-2013 07:02 PM

Do you ever include a batting? I missed that, if so. I wonder if a layer of flannel in the middle would help keep the bread warm longer?

Stupid isn't allowed here, however, inexperience is allowed here! :thumbup:

It would easier to press if the notches were done first, but either way will work.

I gave this is a gift when I did the tute so I don't have the basket anymore, but looking at the gridlines on my cutting mat, I'd say it was about an 8-9" basket. I got it at JoAnn's.

As for adding batting or a layer of flannel, that would work, but you would have to do some quilting if you used batting.

Thanks for the compliments everyone!

Here is where to find the metal pressing bar: http://www.darrsewnotions.com/products/bars.htm

Maggiemay 10-21-2013 05:12 PM

Thank you for this tutorial! I've made so many of these as gifts! I do add a layer of batting & some quilting. I also make them about 20"x20" so I can get 2 out of a width of fabric. Everyone always loves these- such a unique gift!

be8triz 11-15-2014 01:10 PM

Silly question but Is this meant for round baskets? I made a few, and i wanted them for square baskets i already had, they don't look right. Maybe cuz they're empty?

nativetexan 11-19-2014 09:07 AM

I made lots of these and used the cut out sections put together into circles again for coasters.

LindaJ 01-29-2016 05:14 AM

Thanks, just saw this and will make some for the girls.
