Description
Utensilo baskets are one of the most versatile sewing projects – perfect for using up fabric scraps or creating a practical and beautiful gift. I especially love the version with a drawstring closure because it not only helps tidy up open shelves but also allows you to store your items securely and take them anywhere. Whether for yarn, kids’ craft supplies, or travel essentials, this utensilo is a practical companion.
The design features a clever detail: the top edge encloses the lining in the final step, meaning there’s no need to turn the basket inside out. This makes it suitable for less flexible materials like foam interfacing (e.g., Style-Vil). Don’t forget to trim the interfacing before sewing for a clean finish. You can add a personal touch by using patchworked fabric scraps or quilting the fabric. Adding labels or symbols makes the utensilo even more functional.
This project is of medium difficulty and requires some sewing experience, as the drawstring and different materials can be a bit tricky. Using sturdy fabrics will ensure your utensilo lasts, and you can easily adapt it to suit your needs.
- Versatile use: Perfect for yarn, craft supplies, or as a travel organizer.
- Practical design: Drawstring closure for secure storage and easy transport.
- Customizable: Patchwork, quilted fabric, or embroidered labels make it unique.
- Easy assembly: No turning required, great for using foam interfacing.
Sizes:
- Small: 12 x 12 x 12 cm

Bin sehr Zufrieden damit, das Zusammennähen der Teile für den Tunnelzug war für mich nicht ganz verständlich, dass man die beiden teile Zusammennähen muss, habe sie erst gefaltet (stand in der Anleitung falten). Ansonsten supertolles Endergebnis :)
