Description

A laundry basket that's anything but a plastic tub. This one features a parade of stylised cats, each in its own colour, hand-embroidered and quilted on a thick, flexible canvas.

Placed in a bedroom, bathroom, or laundry room, it stands on its own, fills up without losing its shape, and folds flat when not in use.

What you need to know

  • Three sizes: Small 36 x 46 cm, Medium 41 x 56 cm, Large 51 x 71 cm.
  • Material: Quilted cotton-polyester blend, thick and breathable, lined inside.
  • Construction: Rigid sides that hold their shape when the basket is empty, reinforced bottom.
  • Handles: Two securely stitched canvas handles, for carrying from one room to another without worry.
  • Pattern: The design goes all the way around the basket, so it looks lovely from all sides.
  • Care: Damp sponge and mild soap; do not tumble dry. Stores flat.

Each basket is made in small batches: thread shades may vary very slightly from one piece to another, which is what makes each one unique.


Quilted Laundry Basket - Band of Colourful Cats

Last chance — the workshop is closing

Every piece you see here, we have chosen ourselves, one by one, as we have done for twelve years.

Throughout all these years, we have put time, care, and a lot of heart into them. And it is precisely this attachment that makes today's decision difficult: we are parting with our favourite models, with discounts of up to −70 %.

Each basket carries a story — that of a craft made of patience, chosen fabric, and repeated gestures. We don't want this work to be lost: we prefer that each finds a new home before leaving our shelves for good.

That's why this liquidation means so much to us. It's not just another sale, it's the last: once stocks are exhausted, these pieces will not return. ❤️

    The sage green is even better in person. The fabric is light and comfortable and the cut hangs perfectly. I have worn it three times already. It has washed well twice now.

    Janet L.

    What a lovely bag. The quality is perfect and it looks elegant when I go out for the evening. Delighted with it, and it arrived quicker than I expected. The lining is a nice surprise inside.


    Verified buyer
  • Monique Caron

    Marilyn F.

    I gave one to my sister and she loved it, so I ordered a second. It also washes on a delicate cycle, which is very handy for something used daily. The colours came out of the wash bright.


    Verified buyer
  • Valérie Chevalier

    Maureen S.

    Wore it to a wedding and the chiffon hangs beautifully without clinging in the heat. It is properly lined, so nothing shows through in the photos. I felt comfortable the whole evening.


    Verified buyer
  • Josiane Faure

    Shirley M.

    Two weeks of holidays in it and the colour has not faded at all despite the salt and the chlorine. Very happy, and it still holds its shape. It dries on the line in an hour.


    Verified buyer
  • Sylvie Lambert

    Debbie S.

    Lovely top, the bow stays put and the ribbed knit follows without gripping. Half a star off because the sleeves are short on me at 5ft9. The colour goes with everything I own.


    Verified buyer
  • Élodie Renard

    Bev H.

    The olive is a nice change from burgundy and the little pale flowers are pretty up close. Washed at 30 on delicate, and no stretching at all. It layers well over a plain long sleeve.


    Verified buyer
  • Customer review — sandals 5

    Bronwyn F.

    Finally a wedge I can wear all day. The rope on the sole is neat, the black does not show marks and the elastic at the back holds the heel well. I am an AU 8 and the 8 is spot on.


    Verified buyer
  • Isabelle Verhaeghe

    Julie H.

    Prettier in person than on screen. The colours are bright and the cut is flattering. Light, flowing fabric, perfect for a warm day. Lots of compliments. I have had it out three times.


    Verified buyer
  • Catherine Lefèvre

    Helen R.

    The order arrived quickly and the packaging was perfect, nothing creased. Very happy with my purchase, it is all beautiful and exactly as photographed. I have ordered a second one since.


    Verified buyer
  • Sandrine Aubert

    Sandra E.

    The fabric flows and does not crease, I wore it all day without thinking about it once. The size matched the guide exactly, which is rare these days. I have worn it to two lunches since.


    Verified buyer
  • Aurélie Deschamps

    Leanne H.

    The fabric is soft with a bit of stretch, so it follows your shape without gripping anywhere. I am usually a 10 and the M was exactly right. The waist tie makes all the difference.


    Verified buyer
  • Sylviane Robert

    Carol D.

    The fabric is thick and holds the tummy in nicely, which is what I wanted. Half a star off because the straps are a bit long on my short body. The leg cut is modest without being frumpy.


    Verified buyer
  • Corinne Dubois

    Anne G.

    The powder pink is soft rather than loud. The roll neck is stretchy, it does not scratch or grip the throat. I have worn it since April. It has not pilled anywhere yet.


    Verified buyer
  • Dominique Caron

    Noeline T.

    A pattern that catches the eye, I was asked twice where I bought it. Done up, the mosaic runs right around the front. Here within a week. The knit is thick without being heavy.


    Verified buyer
  • Sofia Mertens

    Denise C.

    Unusual and incredibly comfortable, and the print is what makes it. Works in town or sitting outside for lunch. True to size, no adjusting needed. The pockets are deep enough for a phone.


    Verified buyer
  • Martine Dubois

    Lorraine D.

    Elegant and practical at once. Ideal for carrying the essentials with a bit of style, and it sits nicely on the arm. A wonderful bag, I love it. The zip runs smoothly every time.


    Verified buyer
  • Chantal Mercier

    Judy N.

    Here within a week. The colours are exactly like the photos and the cut is very flattering. I wear it whenever it is warm enough, which is often. The neckline sits well without gaping.


    Verified buyer
  • Marie-Claude Girault

    Colleen B.

    Beautiful dress, loose and cool for summer. Half a star off as it is long on me at 5ft4 and I tread on the hem without heels. Otherwise lovely. With a small heel it sits just right.


    Verified buyer
  • Annie Lecomte

    Jenny R.

    Finally a swimsuit with a skirt that covers the top of the thighs without looking dated. I feel comfortable at the pool and at the caravan park. The skirt does not float up in the water.


    Verified buyer
  • Martine Delorme

    Val N.

    The daisies are embroidered rather than printed, and the openwork sleeves are really pretty up close. My usual size fitted perfectly first go. It washes well on a wool cycle.


    Verified buyer
  • Monique Lefort

    Delwyn R.

    The little cat faces are adorable and the cream background goes with everything. Half a star off because the buttons are a tight fit at first. They loosened up after a few wears.


    Verified buyer
  • Chloé Verstraete

    Robyn M.

    Very happy with it, light and ideal for warm days. The only gripe is that it runs a little big, I could have gone down a size. Otherwise no complaints. The colour is exactly as photographed.


    Verified buyer
  • Christine Bertrand

    Cheryl A.

    The fabric is thick and properly lined, and the bag stands up on its own even when empty. Lovely finish, and the colours have not faded in the sun. It holds a laptop without sagging.


    Verified buyer
  • Hélène Moreau

    Trish O.

    Lovely dress, properly lined, nothing shows through at all. Half a star off because it is a bit long on me at 5ft3. A hem taken up and it is perfect. The fabric is lovely and cool to wear.


    Verified buyer
  • Christelle Boyer

    Gail W.

    Ordered it for a dinner and have worn it twice more since. It does not crease in a suitcase, which is a real bonus for going away for a weekend. The sleeves are a good length on me.


    Verified buyer
  • Emilie Cordier

    Elaine P.

    Here within a week and I tried it on straight away. The frills hide the tummy nicely and the size matched the guide, so no returning it. The lining is thick enough to swim in.


    Verified buyer
  • Anne-Sophie Perrin

    Jeanette F.

    Grey and cream goes with everything I own. The dropped shoulders give it a relaxed feel. Half a star off, the knit is lighter than I expected. Good for autumn rather than winter.


    Verified buyer
  • Customer review — sandals 1

    Lorraine B.

    The gold is understated, not shiny like some photos make it look. The little heel is steady and the sole cushions well, I walked all afternoon without any pain. My usual size fitted perfectly.


    Verified buyer
  • Émilie Dumont

    Wendy T.

    My favourite piece this season. The colour is gorgeous and it hangs beautifully without clinging. Comfortable at the desk and smart enough for dinner. It packs flat and comes out fine.


    Verified buyer
  • Nathalie Rousseau

    Vicki S.

    I have used it every single day for a month and it still looks brand new. The stitching is flawless and the handles have not stretched at all. The base still has no marks on it.


    Verified buyer
  • Brigitte Faure

    Fiona McD.

    I wore it to my son's wedding and had so many compliments. The lace is well sewn and does not scratch at all, even after a long day on my feet. It photographed beautifully on the day.


    Verified buyer
  • Manon Leroy

    Lyn T.

    The colours are even nicer in person than they look on screen. Delivered in eight days and the size is true to the guide, no guessing needed. The fabric feels much better than I expected.


    Verified buyer
  • Karine Dumas

    Narelle K.

    It dries fast and keeps its shape after a whole week of wearing it daily. The side ties let you adjust the length, which is very handy. The colour is richer than in the photos.


    Verified buyer
  • Véronique Marchand

    Margot W.

    The comfort of a jumper with the shape of a cardigan, which is exactly what I wanted. Lined hood, and big buttons that are easy to do up. The pockets are deep and well placed.


    Verified buyer
  • Customer review — sandals 2

    Maureen T.

    Here in five days, nicely packed. The velcro straps adjust to my slightly wide foot and you feel the arch support straight away. The beige goes with everything.


    Verified buyer
  • Charlotte Maes

    Susan B.

    Soft fabric and a delicate print, a really lovely piece. It works with jeans or with dress trousers. Half a star off because it runs a bit big on top. The buttons feel solid, not plasticky.


    Verified buyer
  • Isabelle Perrin

    Dianne K.

    The colours are even better in person than in the photos. Half a star off because the handles are a bit short to wear over the shoulder with a coat on. Carried in the hand it is perfect.


    Verified buyer
  • Julie Bonnet

    Kerry J.

    It has pockets, which I did not expect. Comfortable and dressy at the same time, so I wear it to work and again on the weekend without thinking. It washes and hangs dry with no ironing.


    Verified buyer
  • Danielle Perrot

    Rosemary C.

    Loose, light, with sleeves that cover the arms properly, which is exactly what I was after. Hand washed once already with no trouble at all. The colour has not faded in the sun.


    Verified buyer
  • Nathalie Roussel

    Kaye L.

    The nordic pattern is crisp and well knitted, and the cream is not see-through. Washed at 30 on delicate and dried flat, it has not changed shape. It layers over a shirt without bulk.


    Verified buyer
  • Françoise Lemaire

    Toni B.

    The three browns are lovely in person and the buttons are sewn on properly. The knit is warm, so I wear it around the house instead of a jacket. The length covers the hips nicely.


    Verified buyer
  • Customer review — sandals 3

    Christine M.

    Very comfortable, the elastic straps do not grip and the navy is true to the photo. Half a star off because the sole is a bit thicker than I expected, but you get used to it quickly.


    Verified buyer
  • Nathalie Janssens

    Karen P.

    Arrived this week and it is already a favourite. Soft fabric and the floral print is even nicer in person. Nothing pulls or gapes anywhere at all. It has survived two washes unchanged.


    Verified buyer
  • Françoise Girard

    Pauline G.

    The medium size is plenty for me: my book, my umbrella and everything else I carry for the day, with room to spare. Lighter than it looks, too. The inner pocket fits keys and a purse.


    Verified buyer
  • Patricia Vasseur

    Annette V.

    The fabric is light and cool, perfect for summer here. Machine washed at 30 on a gentle cycle, no fading and no shrinking, and it dried overnight. The buttons at the front sit flat.


    Verified buyer
  • Martine Colin

    Bronwyn A.

    The support is very good and nothing moves when you actually swim in it. I took a 16 and it fits true, with no digging in at the shoulders. The straps stay put when you dive in.


    Verified buyer
  • Isabelle Garnier

    Raelene H.

    The forest green is exactly what the photo showed. Loose without looking bulky, and the balloon sleeves sit well under a coat. Here in six days. The neckline sits nicely without gaping.


    Verified buyer
  • Catherine Vidal

    Glenys M.

    The argyle is classic and well made, and the navy is smart enough for town. Half a star off, it runs large: between sizes, take the smaller one. The elbows have held up with daily wear.


    Verified buyer
  • Customer review — sandals 4

    Narelle G.

    The red is gorgeous, exactly as on the site. Three adjustable straps, real support for my weak ankles. Three weeks of wear and not a single blister.
