Round two of the Fabulous Little Random Things Swap (FLiRTS) is over and now that my partner, Susan, has received her gifts (and loved them....phew!) I can show you what I made.
One of the items on my partners list was a fabric basket and round if possible.....and that's the one I chose to make. Purple is her favorite color.
So tada:
Pink Chalk carries this great pattern called the Special Occasion Gift Tote by Sew Fun. It was easy to follow and easy to make. I'll be making another some day.
It's a nice size and has these dividers all around the inside. I left half as dividers and the other half I made pockets.
In the swap we only need to make one item on the list (we list 5 things) but when I saw this zombie zippered pouch on Happy Sew Lucky blog I knew I had to make one! My partner also listed a zippered pouch for a first aid kit and she has wonderful sense of humor....so I knew she'd love him as an extra.
Aren't his insides hysterical? Oh how I wish I could have found some zombie band aids to put inside!
I also had chosen a fabric basket on my list of 5 things. The wonderful gal who had me made this incredible basket for my collection of Perle cotton threads. I was in love with it the minute I saw it in the Flickr pool.
Sil does amazing paper piecing. I am always so impressed with the blocks she makes! Can you see the cute spool quilting she did? Love it. Everything about this basket is perfect.
Can't wait for the next round of swapping! :)

And I am the very lucky recipient of the purple basket and the zombie first aid kit! I love them both and you didn't mention that you included a lot of great text/print fabrics too, and quilt labels! You spoiled me terribly Cindy and I am so grateful! Thank you again, so much! My mother loved the basket, I showed it to her yesterday and I really enjoyed using it, it's just perfect for my needs! And so pretty, too. :)
Hi Cindy! I just linked over here from the comment you left on my blog and I sure am happy that I did!! The two fabric baskets are great but that zombie zipper pouch is the coolest thing EVER!!! Where in the world did you find such awesome fabric?! Oh, I am so jealous of Susan. She's lucky I don't know where she lives!!!LOL
Eeek, that zombie is so disgusting and so cool!
