Spring gives us fresh green and vibrant colors, and a sense of growth and renewal. It’s a good time to reconnect with friends and family. Whether you’re celebrating a holiday, a birthday or just want to say “thank you!”, offering a hand made seasonal gift or home baked goodies makes it extra special.  Mother’s Day is just around the corner and it’s a great reason to make something to give. Hooked baskets are a beautiful way to capture the essence of Spring. Fill them with homemade treats.  Below are a few ideas to get you started. See free patterns on www.colorcrazy.com.  You can choose to use your own extra fabric scraps, recycle something, or buy the Color Crazy fabric strips and Cotton Muslin strips.
