    (I'll do just about anything to avoid hand-sewing! LOL! )

    Just thinking out loud, one could put button holes and sew the button to the box and that way it would be optional to have the flap up or down......

    Thinking "Outside the Basket"...what do you think? Does this work as a bassinet for the dolly...or look more like the basket Moses was in? lol!
