It’s never too early to start preparing for Halloween! With this free sewing pattern from Heather Handmade, you can create an adorable trick or treat basket that’s roomy, durable, and absolutely perfect for candy collecting. This fabric basket is designed to stand up on its own thanks to the clever use of both medium-weight fusible interfacing and fusible fleece. The structure allows it to hold its shape while still being washable and easy to fold flat for storage until next year.
The basket features a wide opening so kids can easily reach in for their sweets, and it’s sturdy enough to handle a big haul of treats. Use quilting cotton in festive Halloween prints or solid colors to match your child’s costume for a personalized touch. Fun to sew, practical to use, and sure to make trick-or-treating extra special!
