I think that the elastic would make for a more secure fit, though, and the basket could still be adorned with ribbon. (I've been attracted to buying ribbon lately--I guess I'm trying to get back in touch with girlie things in a house full of males.)Liz Washburnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06301166562236914187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7270442039937122804.post-16052017432111263572012-06-27T10:14:03.645+01:002012-06-27T10:14:03.645+01:00Gillian, I don't think you can possibly call y...Gillian, I don't think you can possibly call yourself a novice stitcher! Would that I were such a novice! Your idea about using lined baskets for Lego etc is an inspired solution for a perennial problem. Wish I'd thought of it when my son was small. I did have baskets for stuff but not lined and of course small wheels and tiny Lego components used to get stuck in the basketwork or drop through all the time.Thomasina Tittlemousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01574272724724663796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7270442039937122804.post-6634114761706181482012-06-27T09:33:39.749+01:002012-06-27T09:33:39.749+01:00I love this idea, if only I had a basket that need...I love this idea, if only I had a basket that needed lining! You've got me visualising all the different places in my room where I could potentially make use of something similar, as of yet I've drawn a blank, but i will come up with something!aLittleBlondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06614576428389335783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7270442039937122804.post-1592751748589721392012-06-26T21:58:17.515+01:002012-06-26T21:58:17.515+01:00Great tutorial - i lined a basket last summer but ...Great tutorial - i lined a basket last summer but it didn't quite fit - I can see from your photos now where I went wrong - Thanks a bunch!

I love the fabrics you chose, so colourful. While perfect for yarn, I did think these would make excellent toy baskets for those pesky little playmobil and lego pieces that always go missing!Gillian Roehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05080123177116154219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7270442039937122804.post-9015379860214276162012-06-26T13:32:42.543+01:002012-06-26T13:32:42.543+01:00Ohh wow!
