Hi,
A bit late for Easter but I finally finished the Easter basket, I had a problem with the handle it was too long and would not stay up no matter how much stiffing I did, so in the end after much thought I glued a piece of acetate inside the handle and it worked.
I used Lizbeth thread no 20 in Rainbow Taffy, Pineapple Parfait and leaf green. The pattern was by Laura Bziuklewicz, I enjoyed tatting it but next time I will make the handle shorter.

Beautiful work Margaret,the colours are gorgeous
