So here you are - the end to the canister instructions! I can't wait to see what you all make!
Next take the inside lining piece and turn it right side out. Then place the lining piece inside the outside piece (which is still inside out). Sew top edges together with about a 1/2" seam leaving about 4" open.
Turn canister right side out through opening, and shape bottom. Smooth up outside and lining pieces up. Lining will stick above the outside.
Flip down the lining piece to cover unstitched opening and top stitch around canister to hold the fold in place.And there you have it - a cute fabric canister!

Thanks! Sounds like a good weekend project!
Too fun! You did a great job with step-by-step photos and directions. I just showed it to DH and he thinks they would make great Christmas presents in Austria... as we tend to exchange small, handmade gifts there... Ah yes, got to pack some novelties and batting in the box that is getting shipped over there for my winter entertainment!
Cheers!

I'm going to take a look around and see if I can't find some fun fabric to make one of these. I can see all sorts of uses *s*
Very cool canisters Dawn! Everything is looking so great. I should thave told you ealier that I really like the new look of the blog. More calm and I love the crows! Makes it very enjoyable to come over and read a spell! Your sewing groups sound like such fun!
This is so fun. I want to make one too :-)
Did I say how much I LOVE that gingerbread man fabric?
