Ok, I don't have a template for this so I'm just going to explain it the best way I can. For this basket shown here, and the 2 others I've posted,- here are the dimensions: 2 Strips of cardstock 3 1/2 inches wide by 10 1/2 inches long. Score at 3 1/2 inches & at 7 inches. (you now have 3 squares on a strip.) Fold on scored lines. Criss Cross the 2 strips and glue the center squares together. Bring up the sides and form your basket. I punched the hole on the sides before I glued the centers together. Tie ribbon through the holes on the sides to secure them in place. Decorate each side however you desire. The handle is 10 inches by 1 1/2 inches. I atttached them to the sides with brads. You can make the handles however long or short you want. ***I also tapered the tops of the sides to look like a tag before I glued the center together also.

Way to go, with these directions, you can make any size you want. Sounds like a great way to use up some scrap strips.
Thanks for sharing.
