I got the instructions from the book "It's a Wrap...Sewing Fabric Purses, Baskets, and Bowls by Susan Breier from Amazon.com.

The clothesline I used was a rather soft polyester and did just fine on my machine.

Looks like lots of work, but sure did turn out nicely. Great gifts for any occasion. Go for it.

Really nice! And it's all the adorable bling that makes it nice...the yo-yos, the beads, wrapping the handle with a second color. It's all those little details that amaze me! I'm more graphic design oriented, but I appreciate pretty details when I see them! I just wish I could see them in my head when I'm making a project!
