Our rain let up,(and flooding) and got to go for a walk and collect pine needles. I need a handle for the little basket. Hard to believe Pear blossoms makes everyone so ill this time of year.

They remind me of strawberry blossoms, I have an idea!
Now someone I know has a pattern for strawberry blossoms?
Help me think :)

This gives you an idea of the size of basket. The threads are wet because pine needles need to be kept moist while working with them, I keep every thing in plastic bag with water while I am making the basket!
More to come on the development of basket!
Have a great day!

Ooo, that basket sure is tiny ! Do you perchance have Liliputian roots 😄
ReplyDeleteNinetta did a Mediterranean Diet Bookmark tatalong (4 parts) with strawberry flowers. https://ninettacaruso.blogspot.in/2016/05/ready.html
