Thank you for the idea! I did think about doing a cross hatch design on the basket ,too. The basket is upholstery and is very thick. Now that I have so many layers to stitch through, I was worried about that.
I will try stitching on scraps first and see how it goes.
Thank you!

Now that is an idea I had not thought of...using ric rac. That may be simpler than trying to stitch through all the layers to make a cross hatch.

The longer I look at something on my wall over time, the more embellishment I add to it. I thought about a butterfly and lady bug resting somewhere. Thanks for looking.

So many great ideas from all of you!
I felt like the basket looked like a place mat! I may have to rearrange my flowers a bit. The photo doesn't show the dimension seen in person. The basket actually pops out from the background so its easier to tell its a basket.

Remember they sell buggie buttons too!
