It's a Quaker design for an exchange on Legacy. I don't believe my partner reads my blog so I think I am safe in posting the pictures. I am really happy how this worked out, I almost didn't finish it this way because it's a fiddlely thing to make. I do wish that I used a different basket, because the swing handles on the Nantucket basket move, the lid doesn't stay where I want it to. I am toying with attaching a button on each side of the basket and then a loop on each side the lid.
I purchased the basket at the Christmas Tree Shoppe, don't ya just love a bargain!

Goodness Joanie! What a fantastic gift.... your partner is *very* lucky and you are a better person that me - I simply could not have given this away. :-) Beautifully stitched and finished!! Is this a commercial pattern or did you come up with the whole thing from start to finish? I love it!
