Tutorial: Nesting fabric baskets

Anna from Tea and a Sewing Machine shows how to make a set of nesting fabric baskets. She gives cutting dimensions to make them in three sizes, the largest having finished measurements of 22 cm x 16 cm x 13 cm. You can easily adjust the dimensions to make these baskets in any size. She used quilting cotton for the outside and the lining because she liked the softy sides, but you could easily give more structure by adding extra interfacing or using a home dec weight canvas for one or both layers.
