A serious change of heart!

I was asked to make one of my moses baskets large enough to accommodate a 2" baby - equivalent to a 3-6 month old babe in 1:12th scale.  I had grave reservations about how this basket would turn out - it needed to be 7cm long and 4.5cm wide to fit a baby comfortably and allow room for bedding and bears etc.  That is a large basket!  So I set to it with little enthusiasm.


I have changed my mind!  I think it turned out quite nicely and now find the need to make one for myself especially for this baby!

(3 guesses on who made the teddy bear!!)


I don't know when THAT's going to happen - perhaps I'll start one straight away........hmmmm.

    Lidi, luckily you have changed your mind: it is a LOVE!
    Perfection aside, the model is dreamy and the baby seems happy :-)

    I love this babybasket. It looks so nice.
    I also like making baskets, but I still have not found the right material in 1 12.
