May Flower Basket

[@AnneMarieMitchell-om3gr]

Oh my glitter! I’m so glad you posted this video. I made one of these YEARS ago in a class. I’d lost the instructions and had forgotten how I’d made it. My original one is sitting beside my main sewing machine holding clips and a pen and thread snips in the little angled pockets. Everyone who sees it wants to make one, but I’d totally forgotten. I’ll gladly send everyone to your YT channel to learn how to make one. Thank you! I can’t wait to make more for my other machines!

[@saffronflora]

Great tip about sewing the corners so they come out perfect. Thank you

[@cinnybuggable]

🎉 This Basket & Tutorial is a Winner 🎉 I really want to thank you for going back to demonstrate how the basket needs to look/lays as you do the 2nd set of corners 🥰 My brain needs to see ... the 'how-to's' inorder to learn😂 Now off to make my friend one as a Get Well gift❣️

[@marshacowan5977]

Hope your friend is feeling better and loves your basket!!

[@sandybruce9092]

Thanks for the reminder about sewing a couple stitches or so across a corner - I tend to forget this but it definitely does make a better corner!

[@merryhill4790]

Over the years I have made all kinds of these baskets round, square, oval and they are so much fun to make for myself or gifts. I really like this method as it is so quick and versatile. Thank you for your great video, I love your choice of fabric, they are so pretty.

[@gkhutchinson1284]

So fine! Easy and quick. I may add a small handle. Enjoyed it!!

[@janelicata5328]

Thank you for this great idea for left over 10 inch squares. I love using up scraps and giving little gifts to my friends. These are perfect!

[@marshaquesnel1048]

I just made two of these for Mother’s Day gifts. They were just the right size for a jar candle! Thank you for this fun tutorial!

[@kathyallen8323]

I love these baskets. Seems very easy. Great tutorial.

[@kathyk8836]

Thank you for the tips and this lovely tutorial.

[@karenm7260]

Thanks so much for an excellent tutorial on such cute baskets. Your fabric choices are great. Another project to work on for gifts that are practical.

[@Troutay]

this is so cute!!! I am going to put a. little plant in it to give as a mothers day gift!

[@karoliyer4860]

Love these…. And I can use all those scraps up now…… thank you so much!😊

[@royatij5336]

To cute idea for many things thank you for sharing the cute idea.

[@bocajean]

Thank you Marsha this is an excellent tutorial and lovely way to use extra pieces of fabric from a layer cake.

[@shellyjacob6037]

Thank you so much for this video. I love the quilting pattern you used on your super cute fabric basket. I definitely plan to make a batch of these for my daughters & granddaughters. ❤

[@paulettemorris1571]

Thank you much for this great tutorial. I have a lot of leftover layer cake pieces, now I know what I’m going to do with them. Love the little baskets! ❤

[@mariaf5474]

Very cute and easy. An alternative to cutting off the corner excess and zig zag finishing, is to bind the edge for a cleaner finish. Either with one of the 2 fabrics or a complementary fabric. As is, it would be a cute retreat tool basket. The internal corner pouches could hold small scissors, seam ripper, marking pen, and then the main cavity for many other items.

[@marshacowan5977]

Great idea. Thanks for sharing!!

[@cocolovescrafts]

Beautiful!...ty for the detailed explanation 👍👍👍👍👍😊❤️ ..

[@JesusisKing222]

Hi there! New sub here and I can’t wait to make these for my daughter’s in law for Mother’s Day! Thank you for the perfectly timed great idea! God bless!

[@laurasharp7955]

Great tutorial and a great idea for quick to make gifts. One could make them different sizes.

[@ladyd54]

Very cute and very useful!❤ So glad to see someone addressing the cutting of the batting and or felt 1/4” small on all sides. If you would like the bottom to be a little firmer you use a stiffer fusible piece just in the center (so that means cutting out a square and putting in the firmer piece there or you could make a decorative bottom for the inside of the basket.

[@rochellenowik9875]

Enjoyed your tutorial and appreciated the corner tip. You are right they would make fabulous gifts.

[@irenevanvlodrop575]

Thank you so much. Really adorable.Will try it next week. greetings from the Netherlands

[@carlynnewright1816]

So cute. Great tutorial. Love the button idea. For different holidays you could put bunny buttons, flag buttons etc.

[@sandiesnook6117]

Super cute! Easy for beginners!

[@eileenthirling3676]

Yout baskets are wonderful. Thank you.

[@rmcrms5]

I made a couple of these years ago and forgot how. I've been looking for instructions to make more recently so your tutorial was perfect timing. I used Soft & Stable instead of fleece in mine. I use it as a catchall for retreats and it holds its shape even after its been packed flat multiple times.

[@anneshirley3437]

So awesome 👏🏻 can’t wait to make one for our daughter, granddaughter and granddaughter in love for Mother’s Day. Thank you so much 😊

[@lindsaymayne7142]

Would love you to show you sewing especially with the quilting , love what you have made 😊

[@CJG1419]

The little inside pockets could be used for small scissors etc. so cute!

[@maureengauvin1768]

Great idea - thank you for sharing! 🧡🧡

[@karolhall699]

Oh my goodness just made one and it’s adorable. Thank you so much for the great tutorial. So easy to follow.

[@terrigerald4171]

I love it! These baskets are adorable

[@berthanadrossos9802]

Oh my gosh. They are sooo cute and useful.

[@brendabryant60]

Love your idea of quilting the basket ❤️

[@wandawalker4191]

I just found your channel. This is a great tutorial, and so many ways to use this little basket. Thank you!

[@lauramcdonald602]

Thank you. I love it. Thanks for sharing!

[@baseballquilter]

How Cute! Thanks for this. I just made one and I used the same fabrics for both sides. I did straight line quilting 1/2" apart. It came out very nice. I think I'll make more. 😊

[@chrisross3509]

Such a cute basket!

[@lindaskinner5887]

New to your channel. Glad I stopped by. I enjoyed the baskets. Thank you for sharing.

[@tobybishop5036]

Love the baskets!

[@elizabethvallely4044]

They are so cute and the fabric is so pretty! Enjoy the video thank you so much for Sharing! Subscribed to your Channel! Liz 😊🇨🇦

[@joeanngarza3881]

Can you make larger ones ? What would your measurements be ? .

[@sandyrichmond2570]

As long as it’s square any size will do. Such as 12 x 12, 15 x 15 etc.

[@nancy9478]

I have arthritus and got a hemostat to help me turn bowls holders. I love these baskets, thank you for the tutorial. I have so many leftover squares from other projects I can use. The tiny folds are cute, but I think they can be cut and french seamed. Do you think that would work, look ok?❤

[@Cyrilmc222004]

Thank you so much Marsha, I really really enjoyed watching you take us all through making these cute and adorable little May baskets. I would also like to have watched you sewing too, but that’s not important. I’ve subscribed and given you a thumbs up too

[@judierenfrow8073]

Love these. Thank you for sharing.

[@brendabryant60]

Great video thanks for sharing. I think this is a very useful size. Maybe teachers gifts 😉

[@sanja1002]

Sehr hübsch. Der Stoff ist, wenn er gequiltet ist, sicher auch noch stabiler oder?

[@terrigerald4171]

Love the blue fabric

[@kathleenkroha2063]

Hello so many helpful tip. Did you change your block you started with. You had cherry and flowers or did I miss something?

[@anabelcarmona3032]

Thank you for the class blessings

[@leeannlawrence3185]

I am going to try this, thank you.

[@terryhulett4337]

I'm anxious to make one!! Thanks

[@elizabethjohnson5299]

Great video! Thank you

[@patvanderwolf8300]

Thank you, I did enjoy your tutorial.. I am hoping I can adjust the pattern to make 3 of them in different sizes to make a 3 stack .. for a gift. Would appreciate any advise on how to do that. 🌻. Australia.

[@marshacowan5977]

I love your idea of making a set of three. I would cut down the size of two squares to 8” and the third one 6”. Try that and see what you think. Please let me know how that goes.

[@nancylaventure1403]

Very very cute!! TY for your tutorial

[@patricklee5578]

Good advice for crisp corners, take a couple backstitches there to reinforce the corner.

[@nancyhughes386]

These are so cute! Thanks.

[@robinmarks5638]

Cute as can be!! Thank you!

[@131dyana]

Thank you very much I will try that .

[@deineadam2240]

What a cute idea!!

[@allisonferber5474]

Love these! Thanks.

[@sandan2358]

I think I’ll make one & use the button. What is the finished size of the basket ? I want to keep it next to my machine as a thread catcher if it’s not too big.

[@lorriehemerly7526]

Adorable ❤

[@caroljohnson7286]

Awesome

[@ruthhurley800]

I like to sew these but I always tack down the 4 little corners. It makes it more stable and they are mostly useless to hold anything.

[@pz7653]

Can you tell me how you quilted the square? I love the pattern 12:29

[@ritaw9479]

I’m going to make one to use as my key hold so I don’t put them down just anywhere!

[@gingermom12]

love these baskets but your video is very blurry.

[@peggersf9709]

[@joannebock2885]

Please introduce yourself at the beginning of your tutorial, very nice project

[@lucilledaub5991]

I’d rather like to see you sew instead of showing after you sewed.

[@BettyUpdike]

Showing different fabrics is very confusing

[@BettyUpdike]

To much talking and showing different fabrics is very confusing

[@besewcreative5624]

Thank you for your feedback. I'm sorry I was so confusing. I'll try and do better next time.

[@ldc5603]

Cute idea. - you spent nearly 2 minutes to say put a layer of adhesive fleece between layers of fabric. Maybe trying scripting a little bit first.

[@marshacowan5977]

I realize I repeated myself quite a bit. This was a Facebook Live that I did and we just posted the video after the live was over. I apologize for saying the same thing over and over. I’ll try and get a script together for my next one. I appreciate your feedback. Enjoy the project.

[@ldc5603]

@@marshacowan5977 I made a few video and realized having even just having a simple outline keeps you on track. Thank you for the video- I going to make mother day gifts with the idea.

[@tobybishop5036]

I can not believe that you could be so rude about how she explained the fleece! Did that make you feel like a bigger person? If it bugs you that much then don’t watch!

[@ldc5603]

@@tobybishop5036 Well, instead of being a bitch you should have read the response, SHE appreciated it when she responded to me. Videography is not an easy skill and if people aren’t HONEST with them then they don’t learn. Obviously you on the boat of lying to people instead of being truthful.

[@ldc5603]

@@tobybishop5036 Well if you weren’t being such a bitch about it, you would have seen she responded and appreciated the feedback and some advice I offered. Being HONEST with people is how they improve and get better but obvious you’re more in for lying to people and keeping them from improving.
