A large rope basket on a sewing machine. The spirals of rope are wrapped in bright colors: aqua, teal, and acid yellow. Its base is 14” and the sides are about 4”, but will become much deeper (until I run out of fabric).

It’s looking like a basket! I tried to watch the news, but sewing in never-ending spirals keeps me from crying (and screaming). #sewsky #sewing #quiltsky #textiles #ropebasket #resist #crafts

For my crochet friends, I can't wait to make a few rope baskets like this. I've crocheted baskets before, but not with encased rope. I might do mine in black cotton. 🧶
