    Watching this I remembered that I have a Christmas placemat. What a cute idea for holding Christmas cards.

    Some of the placemats even come with a little pocket (for silverware), that would end up on the inside or outside of the basket! So cute and quick!

    I made mine and looks very nice. I couldn't sew to the thick border at the corner edge but looks ok because of the ruffle design.
    And don't throw away the trimmed edge when making the box corners. I ripped the stitches and trimmed them for pull tabs for other projects.

    Thanks Lorrie again. Every time I watch one of your video's I always have to go out & buy the items, but this time I don't! I have extra placemats this time. You are a very good enabler!

  • @adelechicken6356
    @adelechicken6356 6 лет назад +1

    If you don't want to cut off the triangles, you can fold them up the sides, matching the seams and tack with a couple of stitches and the bag will be a little more firm and stand a little stiffer. Great basket idea and so fast and easy.

  • @rebekahbardsley5947
    @rebekahbardsley5947 5 лет назад +1

    Lorrie, This idea is so awesome!! I have been making clutch purses out of place mats for a while now but, never ever thought of making these. They are awesome. I am redoing my craft area in my bedroom and I was going to buy some fabric already made boxes for scraps and ribbons and other notions but, I would much rather make them now. Your video is about a year old, I hope Walmart will still have some of the Pioneer Woman placemats with the pompoms but, if they don't I will go to the fabric store and buy a pkg of seam tape pompoms. My fabric store has them in all one color or many covers hooked to the same seam tape. I was thinking about making a scarf for myself with light weight cotton and a pompom boarder. A store in my neck of the woods called Top It Off have the same scarfs for $15 and I know I can make one. My grandmother had a fabric store and when she passed away my mother being the only girl with 4 brothers inherited lots and lots of fabric. I started sewing when I was 5 and started beading when I was 9. Anyway, I am getting off on the beaten path but, these caddys rock!! I have a wonderful Bernina that I love. Also, for you out there that have Pier 1 in your area - some have clearance rooms in the back of their stores and I love their place mats. I often buy them on sale for the top of my toilet tank. I made myself a shower curtain with a surfing type of lined print but, didn't have enough to make a cover for my toilet tank and by accident I found a place mat almost the same type of pattern at Pier 1. Also, my Tuesday Morning has a clearance room too with nice place mats from time to time. Wow!! I cannot wait till payday now to make some of these caddys and I also have a craft sale coming up on April 27th - maybe I can make some of these and borrow some yard from my sister and her knitting needles for a display. And hey, what a great idea with Easter coming up to give a friend one of these to use year round but, with Easter eggs and bunnies in them. Thanks Lorrie - your 8 minute project is awesome!! Sincerely, Rebekah in Alexandria City, VA

    @rmm9110 6 лет назад +45

    If you do not cut the corners off but instead fold them up against the side seam and tack the point
    in place it will save a step and add stability.

    • @patriot8938
      @patriot8938 5 лет назад +2

      I believe that is a preference. I tend to cut out a 2" square in the corners, then fold, and sew. I find this easier for me. Everyone does what ever floats their boat.

    • @mariannes5309

    • @anndalynnketellapper8296
      @anndalynnketellapper8296 5 лет назад

      I just saw this, and yes I agree that tacking corners instead of cutting them off would add some stability. Especially if the box is used a fair amount. Good idea!

    • @TheNanaweaver
      @TheNanaweaver 5 лет назад

      @@patriot8938 Do you do this in all four corners? , however wont this be smaller and longer . The way your talking it will remain more of a rectangle like a tray, however love our idea too. that is how I make sheets. LOL

    @gloriacabeen1605 6 лет назад +2

    Hi Lorrie, For those not used to a lot of sewing, you may want to mention backstitching at the beginning and end of the side seams. Saying just sew off the edge may make some think you're not doing a backstitch. Thanks for the video, made these the other day!

  • @sharonmckanna8357
    @sharonmckanna8357 6 лет назад +2

    Thanks for this! I just completed 2 using the red polka dot/floral embroidering a 2" initial which I centered 4 12 inches from top edge so that it would be centered while folded. Sure didn't do them in 8 minutes though, ha! ....old machine and I sew like a turtle! Thanks again for the inspirational tutorials!

  • @Memeoffour4
    @Memeoffour4 5 лет назад +2

  • @MrRobinson1998

    Love this - have already made a few! QUESTION - i break a LOT of needles with this project :-(. Is there a certain gauge needle I should be using?? My sewing machine is not top-of-the-line, but it’s not a cheap one, either. P.S. I recycle my cardboard shipping boxes into rectangular bottom liners for the baskets.
