A

Making cloth baskets is a wonderful DIY activity for middle-school students. You do not need expensive new materials. Old cotton clothes are good enough for this project. You just need scissors, some strong thread and a big needle.

Some beginners think it is easy. However, if you are impatient, you will make lots of mistakes. You had better read the whole written guide before you start. Some short online videos

may skip important steps. If you only follow those videos, your basket may break easily.

Linda tried this DIY project last month. She was not good at hand-making at first. Sometimes her cloth pieces were in a mess. But she kept practising patiently. She thought more carefully than many other new learners. When she met problems, she checked her guide book again and again. Finally, she finished several nice cloth baskets. She gave one basket to her grandma as a small gift.

DIY teaches us: perfect works do not come on the first try. Patience and careful checking bring real progress.
