Tutorial: Fat quarter fabric storage baskets

Use your fat quarters to make these fabric storage baskets! C & T Publishing shares a tutorial showing how. You can make the outside from 2 fat quarters, and the lining from another 2 fat quarters. They suggest using them to store your scrap fabric, with the color of the basket matching the color of scraps stored inside. You could also use them to organize toys or toiletries. Finished dimensions are 9½? × 12½? × 9½?.

The project is an excerpt from the book Scrap Patchwork by Sandra Clemons.
