I love Easter and couldn't resist creating a little basket to fit this most adorable image. I wanted to add some texture to the basket so I snipped some crepe paper and adhered it to the inside. I punched out two different layers of borders to create the grass and Akemi's kimono is paper-pieced with washi paper.
