Challenge No 5: Sew something simple and cheery

This was the suggestion of Debriswoman who then extremely kindly sent me a kit complete with all the necessary materials and full instructions.  The idea is to make a simple basket, using various different techniques along the way.

I'm enjoying the challenge, although my stitching is decidedly wobbly.  It's not complete, because there have been days when I haven't been able to add anything to it - either from tiredness (sewing is not easy then) or other activities (yesterday the daughter visited and she graciously allowed me to take her shopping, before we went out for a meal).  But that's okay, because I shall carry on.  And in the meantime, here are some photos of my progress:
