Learning my Lesson, again
This will sound familiar.. I wrote down all the directions and went in my sewing room with this project and didn't bother to really read the directions. Sounds a lot like my pot holder experience last week. Me with my square doors and straight binding.
In this instance me with my cruddy inside corners. I didn't read Linda's comment till it was too late. I just skimmed the instructions and didn't bother to clip the inside corners. Pam Pam Pam.
Still, it's cute, right?
Tell me if you made one!

Of course it is cute! I'm kind of like you - I'm a picture person and a skimmer. Its gotten me this far though, so I take the good with the bad. And who would complain about this basket? I've gotta make one.
I think it looks cool. You should make one in Lizzy Dish. :)
I miss you guys all the time!!!
Lizzy
It is very cute. I am a skimmer which means I usually end up making two--my way and the right way.
Pam:
It look lovely and darling -- but what exactly is it? (Payback for 75 degrees and sunshine the other day -- HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA).
Bonnie
It is lovely...and thanks for sharing...because it makes me feel a whole lot better for the mistakes I'm always making!
I think it is very pretty. I love your fabrics. I made one a while ago and it sits on the little table by my sewing spot and collects my threads. I wonder what I ever did without it.
It's adorable.
And now you're a finisher!
As am I, btw...
It is cute--I would'nt worry about the inside corners-that's what rick rack is for! I plan on making several. How many Hershey's kisses will fit in one? Off to sit n sew...
Pam Pam Pam - that is so darn cute. I'm jealous of your stitches. You know the ones that you have to do by hand, basically the whole sides? How did you get such fine stitching? I don't even SEE the THREAD! I put 3 little thread holders together last night and ironed them but didn't do the hand stitching part yet. I'll post the horrid hand stitches. You'll feel better. I LOVE THE COLORS. Linda
Way cute!
S.W.A.K.
Too cute!!! I too am a skimmer and I am constantly making things harder than they have to be. Someday I will read all the directions first, (maybe)
Love it!

Sooo cute, Pam! I got around to buying two different sets of FQ's for two of them and printed off the instructions....now it's that derned time that keeps escaping me!Cheers!
OMG is that the cutest thing?? Why yes it is. I love it. ADORABLE.
Stinkin' cute...and I love the fabrics :-)!
It's SO cute, and I love the fabrics!
Oh it is cute miss pam!! Even when you make something that isn't perfect, it's still awesome!
((HUGS))
Hey... I'm in charge of the coffee at Skimmer's Anon. meetings. Love your thread catcher... oh so cute!!!!
I've made five of these so when the sewing group comes over, they have something to keep their threads in. My friend has made about 20 or so and the others have all made one too. A very poular tut.
It's very cute! And I wouldn't have noticed your corners if you hadn't pointed it out (besides, rounded corners are nice too!).
Yes, it's very cute! And 75 the other day? That's disgusting!
Oh that's very cute. Very, very cute. ooxx`jod
Too Cute!! I actually have the instructions in my 'to-do' pile!
Is it a "sewing thing" that we just skim the directions? I know I have picked out a lot of things, and wished I had totally read the directions....it is CUTE! I love the poka-dots!
