    I just found this basket at an antique store in Indiana yesterday. It was sitting on top of a big old bookcase and calling my name to take it home, so I did.

    It has a latch on it and opens up, so cool.

    What an awesome find! I will carry it to the quilt guild meetings also.

    Also have you seen the Redmon baskets that were made in Peru, Indiana years ago, they are hard to find. Here is a picture of 2 of mine, nice to store fabrics or projects inside of them.
