Sweet Treats – Candy Baskets

These baskets were created using a kit from a shop hop I did in 2013.

Yes, I am FINALLY getting to them!!

We moved recently and as I am going through my craft stuff, I realized how much I love kits. ( it’s because I have TONS of them!)

This particular kit had all the materials. I had to supply the thread. I find that most kits include the main fabric and I am left to hunt around for the perfect piece of fusible interfacing. In some cases this slows me down enough to get distracted and start another project, or sorting my fabric. I was able to get straight to the cutting mat and finish up these baskets in an evening.

I think these baskets will be handy for small gift giving: socks, nail polish, jam and of course candies!!!
