Another round of box making. Still haven't got the hang of it and nope! still haven't perfected my template cutting skills.
Box size : 17.5cm x 16cmTopper design : Blackbird Peacock Pinkeep
Threads : DMC on my own tea dyed evenweave fabric
Box fabric : Outer case : Live Life @ Japanese fabric
Inside : Cotton : Forgot to note
In the box, a pincushion with 2 floss holder rings
This was my birthday gift for Barbara , BJ as she is fondly known among us, who has caught up with garment sewing lately, so I thought that some sewing threads and buttons would be a good stash in the box. Also in the package are 2 cuts of Yuko Saito fabrics. Hopefully she will find them suitable for her sewing needs.In between, I am stitching the 3rd Round of the LHN Stitching Needlework RR. This round belongs to Diane, USA. I am to stitch Colonial Dry Goods with a bit of changes on its border. Mailing date is due on June 2, preview before the month ends.
Till then, happy weekend everyone, thank you for visiting me and for your comments too, appreciate it :D

Lillie,
That is stunningly beautiful! I wish I could finish my samplers better. I've wanted to try making a box but it looks so hard.......I really love the inside of it too.
Gorgeous!
