OCtoolguy Posted May 23, 2018 Report Share Posted May 23, 2018 I bought a book from Amazon by the title of Boxe, bowls, and baskets by Fox Chapel. I think it might be out of print but it's still available. I'm doing a basket right now that was in the book. Here is a pic.

MrsN Posted May 24, 2018 Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 @heppnerguy I have used PolyDraw. I followed the tutorials and made a few different designs and several baskets from the patterns. Let me know if you have any questions and I can try to help. OCtoolguy and heppnerguy 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrappile Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 Be interesting to try to put that bowl together. Each layer needs to be off set so there is something to glue to. You could keep rotating each layer of alternate the direction of each one? Hope someone does it to see how it works. OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Lehner Posted June 4, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2018 Thanks Katie... Interesting pattern .. will try it this week OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brianr24 Posted June 4, 2018 Report Share Posted June 4, 2018 Try importing the patterns you have into Inkscape and then change the shape. Make them longer and shorter (oval or oblong) shouldn’t be too hard to do. GrampaJim and OCtoolguy 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Lehner Posted June 14, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 Thanks Katie ... it was easy to cut ... a bit tricky to assemble but overall not bad. I did cut two ... this is the other one OCtoolguy and Scrappile 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Image on page 8 of the recent SSWWC magazine. Try doing an "image" search on Google. I will give it a try. Here's the image from Facebook entry. I tried to do a search but so far, no go. Ok, here's the pattern. Graciously given by the maker on Facebook. He found it on Pinterest but said it's very hard to locate so he just gave it to me.

Mike Crosa Posted August 27 Report Share Posted August 27 Old messages but I was looking for oval baskets and this came up. I am trying to figure out how to assemble the cut outs. I can understand rotating the cuts in a round bowl but how to do it in an oval. bowl. Inquiring mind wants to know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
