There are no instructions for this project. I made it on the fly. But if you would like to learn how to make fabric coiled baskets, there are some good tutuorials online. Here is one that I found helpful when I was learning: http://www.quiltingboard.com/tutorials-f10/how-make-coiled-fabric-basket-using-clothesline-strips-fabric-t143655.html
