Fabric box
Help...I've misplaced my pattern for cute little fabric boxes that I made last year. I'm sure that I saw it on QB. It consisted of 2 squares of fabric with batting in the middle, sewn RST & flipped RSO, top stitched, & quilted. Then you folded it in half & sewed a triangle (or dart) on each side, refolded it in half the other way & did the same. You turned this inside out & it made a box. Then you turned down the corners & sewed on a button. Does anyone have the pattern for these? I can't remember the formula for the side darts & I'd like to make a few by Wednesday for a church craft sale. Thanks.

That's the one I'm looking for. I've got my fabric quilted & was waiting to see how I was to make my corner triangles. Thank you, you made my day!

I've never made French seams, but I'll use them on my boxes this time. I like the finished look they give. Thanks for the link. You are such a help to me. When I put 'fabric box' in my QB search last night, I couldn't find any of this information. Any hints on how to find these things without bugging all of you?

I wonder the same thing. I never seem to be able to find things and I use "advanced search". If someone can answer this it would be appreciated....: )
