I love the style of your original photo & am happy to go along with whatever your artistic fingers care to fashion. Time is not a factor - just when the spirit moves you! A postal order will wing it's way to you when you are ready. Happy weaving, sincerley, Ann.

How big do you want your basket Skye? How long a handle do you both want?

As long as it suits the basket shape I'm happy to leave it to you. Many thanks, Ann.
