Bowled over


Yep, more bowls. This time these are a gift to a colleague at work celebrating a birthday. She recently introduced me to etamame (young soy beans in the pod) and that was the inspiration for the green one. The birthday girl has a 1-1/2 year old daughter so the pink one is for her.
Everyone says to use cotton clothesline for these. I had trouble finding any so one bowl is made with polyester and the other with nylon clothesline. Both worked.
The pink bowl is made largely from the strips I trimmed off the backing of a small quilt I'm making.

Hey Monica these are really great. Any chance of a brief description of the method?
