Done....Fabric Covered Box!


This past Saturday my guild (Virginia Guild of Needlewomen) had our end of the year "May Luncheon". The program was to learn how to make a fabric covered box!
It is all hand laced and hand sewn. You could put a stitched design on top if you liked. Since this was the first time I had done this, I didn't want to ruin a perfectly good stitched piece....So, I chose to just use fabric.
I finished my box last night! What do you think?

Wonderful work on the box. Really like the fabric you chose. I've been reading your blog for a while and just now read your profile. You're just down the road from me!

Susan: You are close! My administrative assistant lives on Penola Road...is that near you? You need to join some of the needlework guilds in Richmond..If you would like details, just let me know!!!

I think that your box came out perfect. I've always wanted to learn how to do that. Perhaps I should ask our Guild to teach something like that.
