Sewing Project - Bathroom Utility Baskets Sewn From Hand Towels

For Christmas decorating and gifts we made these Utility Baskets using Christmas fabric. Something similar was needed for the bathroom. But a much more durable and water resistant material was required. Somehow it only seemed natural to use hand towels instead of fabric. The result is excellent. Not only do these have so much body due to the terry cloth material, but if they get dirty, they can be thrown in the washing machine with the towel load and are afterwards as good as new.

 

 

Bathroom Utility Basket 2

For this project you will need:

- 2 hand towels each sized 30 x 50 cm or 12 x 20 inches in contrasting colors
- sewing machine and matching thread
- scissors

Bathroom Utility Basket 1

 

 

 

Instructions:

Important: Prewash the towels to prevent shrinking later after they are sewn.

These are made just like the Christmas utility baskets in this Fabric Bag Tutorial. The only difference is that you are using terry cloth towels instead of fabric. You can also omit using batting as the towels are thick enough to hold on their own.
