Here's what I've made so far

I started my course in 'Basket making with recycled materials' last night. We were using old magazines & cable. I only got as far as you can see above, there was a limited amount of materials & some of the attendees were getting a little precious about their colour scheme. I just wanted to learn the technique so once I'd got the hang of it I was happy to sit back & watch, whilst some minor scuffles broke out over the magazine pages! It was great fun & next week we are learning a different technique though at the moment I cannot remember what, I'll look at my notes & get back to you. I will explain this technique in more detail later if anyone is interested.

Ha Ha - that was what it was like when I did my quilting course. I used any old colours as they were samplers from which I could learn...but the procrastination and fisty cuffs were funny to watch

It all looks very complicated with bits everywhere. You must show us your finished work when it's done.

Got to laugh at the scuffles over magazine pages - I'd have thought the "random" effect is part of the charm! I want to learn basket-making now, though..... ;-)
