Midwest Modern Contest Winners

Do you remember me telling you about Amy Butler's Midwest Modern Contest that I entered a while back? I entered my pin cushion from a men's shirt

and my two-sided burp cloths.

Well, I didn't win, but I'm so in love with one of the winning projects that I had to post about it! Here's Delia Gresham's awesome bicycle basket and matching market bag. My dream would be to live in a cute little Washington, DC suburb and ride my bike just like this to the market, then to the bookstore and sip coffee and watch the world go by. {sigh!}

A close up of the interior of the bicycle basket complete with tons of pockets and a silhouette of a bike at the bottom, the handle even unrolls to become a billfold!

I love contests like these because it pushes me creatively, although now I feel like I have a long, long way to go after looking at Delia's creation! If you're interested, these are all of the entries, and these are each of the winners. Congrats! You ladies are inspiring!
