I finished this yesterday...

Excellent work. Is that one of Sheila Landrys patterns? Thanks for sharing it with us.

Very nice basket

DW, I think it is #18 from Roy Kings Elegant Art Basket Collection 2. I bought both sets of patterns from Scroller and have cut several of them as gifts.

Very good. I have been reluctant to try a basket but this looks really nice, and do-able.

Beautiful design and expertly made. How big is it?

[sawdustus]

Jim, if it is #18, it is about 7" x 10" and 6" tall.

Ron, they are quite doable but make sure you make the notches just wide and deep enough. They won't fit if they are too narrow and they will put unnecessary outward pressure on the legs if they are not deep enough. A blade width or two makes all the difference when cutting them. You have to gently test fit to since not all 1/4" wood is really 1/4" thick.
