Step 1Cut the fabric
1st, cut a circular cardboard for supporting the bottom of basket, the size of circular depends on how large basket you will make; cut out necessary square fabric larger than the circular cardboard (outside fabric, cotton lining, adhesive interlining, and inner fabric).
2nd, place one piece of adhesive interlining at the reverse side of the outside fabric and inner fabric; add two pieces of cotton lining between two pieces of fabric; secure the square bottom with hot melt gun; iron the bottom.
3rd, trace along the cardboard; cut out a circular fabric bottom without
seam allowance.
4th, cut out the fabric for body (the length of outside fabric and cotton lining is your diameter of bottom× 3.14 + 1.5cm; and the inner body fabric is about 3cm longer than the two). -
Step 2Make the body
5th, place adhesive interlining onto the reverse side of the outside fabric; lay cotton lining on the adhesive interlining; cover the inner fabric on cotton lining by gluing; divide excess inner fabric averagely at both ends for binding; iron the body fabric.
6th, sew the body fabric to a tubular shape with 0.75cm seam allowance at both sides.
7th, choose stripe fabric; running stitch along edges of both body and bottom.
8th, cut out the redundant fabric; finish the binding. -
Step 3Seam the basket
9th, combine the body and bottom by sewing with zigzag stitches.
10th, zigzag stitch the body and bottom; ensure small gap between each stitch.
11th, sew the leather handles for the basket.
12th, then a fabric basket with handles is finished.
