I ran across this easy foldable basket pattern when I was stalking for a basket swap. I had to try it. More fun when I found a size calculator on her Facebook.
So I practiced on a few layer cake pieces.
These are cute! I’m glad you gave us two pics because they are longer and more shallow than I thought. I like that size. Pretty fabric, especially the blue.

Cute! I made these for @jemimah for a Christmas swap.
Yes, they are narrower, but useful for things like floss, pencils, utensils, etc.
I also downloaded the calculator.
@gozer I think the second picture shows how they fold flat…that comes in handy for mailing!

I want to try some deeper ones. I was using 10 inch squares which was limiting and going for a shallow candy or catch-all basket. They are amazingly quick.
I will make some for the Holiday Fair at church.

And two more. All from 10 inch squares. Cutoffs used for handles. I will be making larger ones, but these are fun.
First set sizes were 4 x 4 x 2 and 4.25 x 4.25 x 2 inches.
New ones are 3 x 3 x 3 and 3.5 x 3.5 x 2.75 inches.

These are awesome, yours look lovely and thank you for sharing the pattern. This could be a great make for work - we hot desk so can’t have any permanent storage, but my desk gets very chaotic over the day 
And I’ve made my first one. It was great fun and straightforward. Took me about 40 min before work, but I’m not the quickest person.
I cut my interfacing 3/4” smaller all round which made it easy to press the hems and sew the seams as I could use it as a guide

Adorable! I love the polka dots and dark fabric combo. Sweet.
Cute!
The tip to reduce the interfacing is a good one! Thanks.
