Let's get organized or just creative will do. I love sewing these fabric baskets. They can be made in all sizes and fabrics and are useful for anything from kids socks, fabric remnants, toys, a gift basket, and even as a bag. You can add handles or no handles. It's all up to you. Get the details below on how to make a fabric bin/basket.
