Christmas presents- Divided Baskets

Last November, I bought the "Divided Basket" pattern from Anna at Noodlehead.  I have used other (free) patterns from her in the past and I was excited to try the Divided Basket.  I was looking for something new to sew for my 2 nieces and nephew for Christmas and this fit the bill.

The pattern was well written and easy to follow... by the time I got to the third one I made I was starting to make adjustments to the pattern and they were starting to go together really quickly.  The crazy part was that cutting out all of the pieces takes as long as sewing the basket together!

I used both interfacings suggested and would recommend to others to do the same, it really helped the fabrics to stand up and keep their shape!

I have already used this pattern once since Christmas and see many more of these baskets in my future!
