Popular Post heppnerguy Posted January 25, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 25, 2019 I was honored to have a friend purchase for me, some of Alex Fox's baskets. I have made one of Fox's basket that I purchased from his wed sight and posted it here about a couple of months ago and my good friend saw that I liked to make them for my wife, who by the way really loves them, so he bought several basket patterns for me to enjoy making. Here is the first of the them but with a little twist. I asked my wife if she would enjoy is with the top two layers left as one or by following the pattern all the way. She told me she would like to see it with the altered way first. So here is her request. When I complete the next one in it's original format, it will be like a new basket all together. I enjoy cutting and putting these together because they are quick and easy to cut but more because my wife likes them so well.

Denny Knappen Posted January 25, 2019 Report Share Posted January 25, 2019 Very well done, Dick. I have completed only one of Alex's patterns. I am thinking of enlarging the pattern to 10" diameter. amazingkevin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spirithorse Posted January 27, 2019 Report Share Posted January 27, 2019 Great work and I really like the alteration at the top. I think it gives it a finished look or something. God Bless! Spirithorse heppnerguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you make the patterns for 10" stock? Each bowl pattern includes PDF, JPG and vector formats (DXF, SWG, EPS). If you have any vector graphic program you can open/import one of vector formats and resize pattern as you want Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
