Hello,
Remember I was rusting some fabric recently.
This is what it turned out like. Love that the process was so simple. The hardest part was resisting the urge to un-tie the fabric to see how it was going.
I decided to make two baskets with some of the fabric.
I found a tutorial online for a quick simple basket and decided to try stamping the fabric with the stamps that
Bobbie-Lynn sent me.

I have made a couple of these baskets and use them all the time. This one is currently holding some fruit on the kitchen bench.

I will be doing some more rusting of fabric,maybe even some linen for cross stitch.
Happy days.

That is so effective! Great work and I would have had trouble not checking the progress too.
I love your baskets, Bev. I would never think of rusting fabric. It gives such a different effect.
Gosh yes Bev that is SO effective, I love the results. Would never have thought you could do that to fabric :-)
great effect with the rusting!
What a great idea and it turned out SO adorable!! How creative. Well done ;)

Hi Bev,
Love the look of your rusted fabric. A great way to use those stamps too. I thought the fabric came that way until I read a little further down. : )
Happy sewing and have a wonderful day.
Blessings,
Bobbie Lynn
