One word of warning though: your thimble cactus will try very hard to take over that bowl... grows fast and will get taller...
Here is mine starting to overflow the front of the hanging basket I have it in and crowding out some of the other cacti barely visible in the background:

It started out from a clump that was not even quite the size of your very nice clump.



I love your idea to put it in the hanging basket! I bought a small plant, and it's grown so quickly that it outgrows every small pot I use. Hanging it would be perfect in my greenhouse. Mine has been blooming non stop since I got it. They seem like wonderful little plants.
