That basket is my Easter basket, the link in under Holiday Stuff on the right side of the blog. It is the one made to cover a Cool Whip container. It never got embellished, maybe one of these days. But I'm having too much fun covering eggs.
I'm thinking these would make a great gift for my baby niece. I could put some type of filler inside the eggs to make them "rattle" and completely cover the eggs and thoroughly fasten them closed at the bigger end for safety. Have to figure out the logistics for that but I have about a month to works on them. Thanks for the pattern and I will be sure to credit you and link to your pattern when I finish! :)
Hi Suzie, This is perfect! I was looking for something like this that i can whip up quickly. Thank you!
