This week's Zakka project is a bread basket. I loved the designer fabric choices in the Zakka Style Sewing book, and even had very similar fabrics on hand. An unusual vintage fabric I had found some time ago, though, kept coming to mind. It didn't really "call out" to me as bread basket fabric, but I decided to go with it. Here it is... with several other than bread options!
 |
| The front and back are Essex white linen. I fussy cut the mailbox motif from the vintage fabric, placed it on top of a mustard linen piece, and sewed them both onto the front. |

| The sides/handles are cut from the vintage fabric. |

| Use #1 -- Breadstick Basket! Yummmm... |
 |
| Use #2 -- Flower vase holder! -- Why not? |
 |
| Use #3 -- Specialty Tea bag. |
 |
| And, Em, this is for you -- A Windshield Wiper holder!! :) I couldn't resist! |
