2 pieces 10 x10
8 pieces 4 x 10
This server was square, so quite a bit a little easier. I have 2 more that are just about finished, rectangles! So in that case I need 4 pieces of fabric for each side measurement.
I sewed 2 boxes out of fabric, just like making a tote bag. I sewed the boxes right sides together at the top, left a hole for turning. After I turned the boxes, therefor making the entire thing reversible, I left the original hole and sewed a seam about 3/4 inch from the top. I then added elastic throught the original hole and then sewed that hole shut!
I originally wanted to use 2 fabrics. But I had quite a bit of this print! I used dry clean only fabric...so I will have to wash the liner by hand. I think addind a layer or two of iron on stabilizer to the botom would make the "basket" more sturdy.
I hope that helps! Feel free to contact me with questions. Posted: 10:25 am on January 1st
