"Butterflies n Bows" Sewing Basket SIZE: 10" rim; 8" base; 6" depth

This is a "one of a kind" coiled rope sewing basket. Elegant and posh! If you look closely at it, you will see many techniques were used in its construction. An exceptional handmade gift which can be used to store jewelry and love letters, or family photos from days gone by. Place keepsakes such as a clipping of your baby's hair or dried flower petals from prom.

I have used a muted lavender lily print for the inside base, outside bottom, and even as ribbon wrapped on the top of the lid.

A large stiffened lace bow, which I made on my embroidery machine, tops off the lid design.

You will find 4 butterflies attached to this basket. The two larger ones are embroidered with the top butterfly stitched directly through the rope lid. The other inside one has been embroidered and then fancy cut and stiffened, You will find two other small butterflies. One is attached to the inside of the lid, plus the last one is perched to the outside rim of the lid. I have made all of them!

The metallic ribbon is threaded over the cotton rope, making a glittery design.

Montana Made with Montana Pride.

Frequently Asked Questions

Care instructions

Bowls: Use a damp cloth to wipe off. The smaller bowls can be put in the washer on gentle and then air dried.
Towels: All embroidered towels can be put in the washer and dryer as I have already preshrunk the fabric before embroidering on it.

What about the extra sewing threads and stabilizer on the back of the bowls and towels?

Bowls: I have taken the extra time and care to snip off the extra threads and stabilizer from the bottom lf the bowls. So no other action is needed.
Towels: Extra thread has been removed from both the front and back of the towel. Most of the stabilizer has been trimmed closely to the embroidered design. The remainder of the stabilizer will dissolve with the first washing of your towel.

Will my towels shrink and bunch to distort the embroidery design during washing?

No, as i have taken the extra step to prewash all of the towels before embroidering on them.

Where is the cotton rope made?

The natural cotton rope is manufactured in the USA!

Do you use AI to make your bowls?

No, I make my bowls all by hand and my ideas come to me during the early morning hours.

Yes, I use AI to clean up my photos and I use AI to stage a very simple and natural scene to show how my items look in different color settings. Lifestyle mockup images are digitally generated to show the product in context. The first image shows the actual product"
