I found my cotton clothesline at the $ store. The label reads...SecureLine Cotton Clothesline 100ft. X 3/16in. I am going to try the 3/8 polyester rope that I have left over from doing the fancy lawn chairs to see what kind of a basket it will do. My lat basket I made with a Rayon blend? fabric and it turned out nicely. There are a couple of tutorials on QB, one done by Eddie and someone else. There are also more pictures of fantastics examples in different posts. There are tutorials on the net also.
