It was only scraps which I used - I chose the blue ones and green ones
and a few coloured ones which I liked.
My scraps are really very small - I cut them 3 cm large and some of them
were not longer than 10 cm.
And see the result - I am so satisfied with it. It looks happy -
like it was reflecting a blue sky which we didn't see for some time.

The photo below shows the clothesline on which I wrapped the bits of
fabric. I would not use this to hang my laundry on, however.
It is good for fixing furniture on trailers for a long transport -
it is strong enough. Nevertheless, the machine needle manages
to sew through it.

I wish you all a creative week !
What a pretty basket. It's amazing what one can do with just scraps. Blue is my favourite colour. Your coil finish makes it extra special.
ReplyDeleteit's a very lovely basket Anneliese and your French home looks idyllic...
ReplyDeleteI really like your basket :-)
ReplyDeleteI hope you are having the same glorious weather as here; since Sunday we could believe that spring has arrived at last!

This is really pretty Anneliese. I have never tried this but hope to some day.
ReplyDeletewonderful use of scraps. I, too, like the blue & the effect of the subtle changes in colour is stunning.
ReplyDeleteA lovely blue basket, Anneliese! I like the spiral finish.
ReplyDeleteIt looks as though you're having some nice spring weather.
