I love making corded baskets, and now, since watching this video, I feel I will love it, even more! Great tutorial! Great tips! Exceptional quality of work! Thank you so much. I can’t wait to make my first covered basket. I’m going to make one shorter to transport a covered dish. This was my first video of yours that I have watched. Will definitely be watching more. You are an excellent teacher.
Just now getting interested in those rope baskets. Your video was the first I have seen that sews fabric onto the Rope! Fantastic Idea! All videos I have seen this far.. take much wrapping fabric!. Thank you for video!
I’ve been making baskets for 2-3 years now and have watched many how to videos. I’m a very visual learner which makes your videos excellent for makers like me. Your method of creating the beginning spiral has taken away lots of stress, as has your way to add rope to a work in progress and for ending the piece. You’ve really clarified a lot of technique for me. Thank you so much 🩷
I have been looking for a tutorial with this technique for a while. Thankfully, I found you. This is exactly how I want to make my baskets. Thank you, Rosie.
I thought I recognized your teaching method/thoroughness/voice! I watched this video a couple of years ago, now I am onto making bags with you! Fantastic teacher…. Jonee
Gorgeous baskets! Your techniques are the absolute best ones I've ever seen. Basket weaving techniques incorporated into fabric covered baskets and raised centers is mind blowing. I've never seen any fabric baskets like these. I'm making them all multiple times! Thank you so much for sharing your talents so we can improve our skills. And your key fob pattern I purchased is awesome! It's the perfect size for holding essentials and in today's world it's perfect for carrying a few clean masks. I may add a pocket with a snap to the back side of it to put a used one for the trip home.
Thank you so much for your very kind comments! I am glad that you like my technique for making the clothesline baskets. Also, great idea for using the key fob pouch. I would not have thought of that myself. Enjoy!
Oh my goodness I never realized a mat could get dull! I’ve had terrible luck with new blades, so I thought. I now realize it’s most likely my Mat since it’s my favorite and I’ve used it for years. Thanks for that info I’m glad I didn’t throw away what I thought were defective blades. I’ll try using one of my less used mats which are practically new since I’ve barely used them. I’ll let you know how I make out. I’ve never ever heard a mat could wear out in all the years I’ve been a quilter
Thank you, amazing tutorial! You are amazing with your instructions- not too fast - very clear instructions. Encouraging me to slow down and follow your instructions
very well taught. rosie knows her stuff. it's better than the 25 minute workshop i got at a meeting a few months ago. and i love the work in the beginning of the tutorial. great job!
Thank you so much Rosie! Fabulous tutorial and amazing results. I've been saving discarded clothesline for years with good intentions of making baskets one day. Thanks to you, that time has come. Your baskets are gorgeous🥰
If the fabrics are sewn together at an angle, there will be less bulk when seaming. Also, cutting the fabric on the bias will keep the fabric from fraying when cut close to the seam and will allow the fabric to be stretched as sewn so it is tight around the cord.
Excellent! The basket as well as the tutorial. Thank you so much. I'm a pensioner-begginer)) got absolutely addicted to sewing baskets but each time I get NOT what I want - in diameter, form, height. Your explanations come very helpful. Thank you from Russia.
Rosie what beautiful work you do. I was wondering what you do with the fraying on the fabric in the inside of the bowls. I really don’t like all those little threads sticking out. Any suggestions????
Love, love, love your covered baskets!!! And your fabric choices are simply beautiful!! Thank you so much for sharing this with us. Is there any kind or size of design of fabric that you recommend? I know the batiks are always gorgeous!🥰🥰😊
Thanks for your tutorials, Rosie!. I also have a dressmaker background. My question is this... Have you ever cut your strips on the bias? My thinking is that it would be beneficial for stretching the fabric over the rope and smoother curves. I have only tried the raw edge wrapping method, and found that it caused pain in my hand by twisting the fabric over the rope. So I will give this method a try!
Try as I might following your tutorial i can not get a straight up sided basket. What am I doing wrong. Also, I noticed you did not have a spool of thread on the spindle....it appeared that it was coming from the bobbin area.
Just curious as to why we want the center of the bottom and the center of the top of the covered basket to have a raised center. Seems like it would work well flat as well. Also, why does it raise up if you’re keeping it flat. Great tips on the tutorial. Thanks
Thanks for the super instructions. I must admit I was a bit of a skeptic on the idea of making a ton of cording and then sewing it all in one feel swoop. But it was so fun. I was trying out several methods and materials over a weekend and wound up with three cotton ones and six smaller ones out of paracord. Today, I was kind of looking around on your website for more information regarding the supplies you were introducing. I did not see a webpage for that anywhere. Do you have an opinion as to which brand of multi-colored thread performs in a similar way to Mettler Metrosene or Gutermann polyester? Those are my preferred brands for years and I would like to consider branching out and trying something new.
I love your tutorial. Thank you so much. Is it okay to use nylon braided rope for the weavers? I bought some before watching your tut (3/16” x 50’) and not sure if I should return it for macramé cord.
How do you clean up the loose strings on the inside of the basket? I love that there are no raw edges on the outside, but the inside does not look as nice with all the loose threads.
When you sew the fabric covered rope together you can position it so that the raw edges are touching each other causing them to be completely hidden which will give you no raw edges on the outside or inside...if that makes sense.
Susan H Have just made two small baskets. Have used Dunn hardware braided rope 5mm x 15mtr & Grunt cotton sash cord 5mm x 25mtr. Bought at Bunnings hardware store here is Australia. The rope must be tough but not have foreign material inside. Tough but soft. Good luck finding something that will work for you.
My question is, in this video were you using cotton fabric...a blend? Also, did you cut your strips with the grain or against the grain? One way stretches more than the other and I wonder if this helps eliminate any puckering when you begin creating the basket bottom. Your teaching style is excellent. I really enjoyed your videos and your baskets are amazing. Thanks for sharing.
You are welcome 😊. I show baskets of different sizes in this video. I don’t have measurements for you. I typically prepare a bunch of the fabric covered rope and if I need more, I add to it. I show how to add more of the covered rope in the video.
What an amazing tutorial!! I feel like I've taken a master class. What would you estimate the height of the side of the first basket? I really appreciate the time you have taken to share this method. I have tried several methods but I think this will be my favorite.
Why not making sure the raw edges stay inside the spiral (where you put the glue) so that there are no visible raw edges on the inside either? These baskets are beautiful!
You certainly can do that and it is how I make mine. You just have to be very carefully that you get the seams perfectly in the middle or they will end up showing on the outside of the basket.
I cut my fabric one inch wide and on the bias and there is little to know waste. I have been selling my work now for two years in a shop locally. I learned something new from your video with respect to the triple zig zag and your amazing handles. Your work is incredible. 🇨🇦
As someone with disabilities...just a note that each method (wrapping or piping) uses completely different wrist/hand motions. Someone may be able to do one comfortably but not the other, so its always good to have different methods.
On watching many fabric covered rope baskets this is the only one that cuts off excess fabric, this to me is leaves g more scraps to use.. if you twist the fabric around the rope there is no waste or cutting off of fabric.
Don’t like the gluing and I also don’t the way the fabric is sewn to the rope, I like wrapping the rope with the strips of fabric , and I never need to glue the centre, Different strokes for different folks, enjoy making your basket, your sister will love it Hugs Maggie ❤️🤗🇨🇦
Not sure why your fixated on pushing the centre of the basket up, put anything in the basket and the bottom just flattens. Pushing the lid's centre looks good though.
I have a question: do you trim off the excess fabric right before starting to make the base? Thank you. You have made an excellent tutorial. Not too fast, not too slow. Very clear. I am a newbie, haven't yet made a basket. I have seen naked rope and where only sections are fabric wrapped. After watching your video, I have much more confidence in trying it!
I want to watch this but I’m afraid the color is taking the attention away from the teaching. I know it’s your artistic style but it’s too hard to watch. I’m sorry
I love this video. There’s no unnecessary chitchat, just getting down to the project with clear, concise instructions. Thank you. 😊
I love making corded baskets, and now, since watching this video, I feel I will love it, even more! Great tutorial! Great tips! Exceptional quality of work!

@@RosiesArtStudio Thank you! These are going to be so much fun to make!
This is by far the best bowl out there! First class act! I can’t wait to make one!!!
Thank you so much for your kind comment and for watching. Have fun making your baskets!

People usually do not talk about dull mats. If a new blade is not cutting, the mat is the problem. Thanks for watching!
I really enjoyed and learned much to get a straight up sided basket. I have to try your method. Thank you.
shared this! this is really one of the best tutorials out there on this style (fabric covered) of rope basket.
Awesome! Thank you!
Fantastic tutorial. This technique also makes great trivets and coasters by just leaving it flat without curving on the 45 degree angle.
Wow l love these baskets and your directions are so clear !!
Thanks so much 😊 and thanks for watching!
Beautiful! Thank you for sharing this process with us!
Love this. Soooo many uses. What fantastic gifts they are going to make for next Christmas. Thank you
They are fun to make. Thanks for watching!
Ah! You started with garment-making. That's why your teaching is so organized and methodical (this is Lisa O.!).
Am going to make one! Start small then a big one. Can't wait. Thank u for sharing.
Thank you, amazing tutorial! You are amazing with your instructions- not too fast - very clear instructions. Encouraging me to slow down and follow your instructions

Brilliant
Great tutorial, thank you. Would you share the brand name of the clothesline you recommend, please?
الألوان جميلة جدا أعجبتني كثيرآ
Loved this video, wish you showed an actual market basket.
Excellent tutorial.
Thank you 🙏🏻
You are welcome and thanks for watching!

It just takes practice to get straight sides. Thanks for watching!

You don’t have to, that is just how she likes it.

you should soak your mat in the bath tub a few times a year... it help keep it from being dual.
Thank you for this great tutorial. Would like to know what brand of clothesline you are using. I couldn't tell from video. Thanks.
I made this video over 10 years ago and do not remember the name of the clothesline.

I use 100% cotton quilting fabric. I usually cut my strips from selvage to selvage. Thank you for watching!
What brand rope? I could not see it.
I don’t remember. I recorded this video over 10 years ago. Thanks for watching!
what model of your Husqvarna machine are you using?
How long of rope does it take to make the basket you are showing? And thank you for such great instructions
You are welcome 😊. I show baskets of different sizes in this video. I don’t have measurements for you. I typically prepare a bunch of the fabric covered rope and if I need more, I add to it. I show how to add more of the covered rope in the video.
Beautiful baskets, may I ask what your background is made out of its really beautiful
Thank you. No special background. I’ve just been sewing for 50+ years.
What is the brand of the clotheline
what brand of clothesline is that?
What is the brand of clothesline you refer to in this video?
What an amazing tutorial!! I feel like I've taken a master class. What would you estimate the height of the side of the first basket? I really appreciate the time you have taken to share this method. I have tried several methods but I think this will be my favorite.
Thank you so much for your kind comment. I believe the first basket was just about 2-3 inches tall. Thanks for watching!
I can’t quite understand how you get the centre dome effect on one and not another.... terrific tutorial
Do you think it would be possible, easier to do the pipping with a Serger??
Very very very thorough.
It's obvious you're involved with children. A teacher perhaps?
How do you cover the clothes line...
Can show how to make a hat from the pipping stitches. Please 😢😢
Are your Olfa SCS 2 Scissors, the 5" or 7" ones?
I recorded this video over ten years ago and I am sorry I do not remember, but I am guessing I would have used longer scissors. Thanks for watching!
Why not making sure the raw edges stay inside the spiral (where you put the glue) so that there are no visible raw edges on the inside either? These baskets are beautiful!
You certainly can do that and it is how I make mine. You just have to be very carefully that you get the seams perfectly in the middle or they will end up showing on the outside of the basket.
Curious as to why you would not save time and fabric and wrap the cord. 🇨🇦
With this technique, you do not get any raw edges on the exterior of the basket.
I cut my fabric one inch wide and on the bias and there is little to know waste. I have been selling my work now for two years in a shop locally. I learned something new from your video with respect to the triple zig zag and your amazing handles. Your work is incredible. 🇨🇦

What is the brand of clothesline??.
I filmed this over 10 years ago so I don’t remember. But, you want something that is a little soft and flexible...not stiff. Thanks for watching!
How many yards of p ipping is needed for an average basket?
I can't get out to order that special needle so what is another
possibility?
Denim needle which is blue for my machine.
Wouldn't it be easier to use a piping foot?
To messy for me. Tyfs ❤️🥰🇨🇦❤️
What do you mean by too messy? I'm making one for my sister.
Don’t like the gluing and I also don’t the way the fabric is sewn to the rope, I like wrapping the rope with the strips of fabric , and I never need to glue the centre,
Different strokes for different folks, enjoy making your basket, your sister will love it

How long should the strips be?
