    Anyone else use a clever idea??

    Elle, I am a person that if I can't find what I want, lots of time, I invent it...or maybe I just think I was the first, lol.
    Hubby gets sodas in these 12" x 16" boxes, I take two and cut off one long side, slide them together and duct tape them. I can make them the size I need. I use them for WIP's...blocks, stack them with different parts of quilt I am working on...use them to sort pages of mag pics I cut out to put in notebooks...oh, me and boxes make a great team...should have been a kitty cat...I keep ona saying...but then I'm really a lab, they're curious too! :D

    another idea I have, is to use the mesh plastic canvas stuff to make the size 'boxes' I want. you could either do the yarn on it, or even glue on fabrics, for a very pretty box.
    If I wasn't so gosh darn busy right now. :lol:

    I'm fairly new here and you other quilters have already gotten to me! I came back to this thread to tell gcathie that her beautiful quilt has inspired me to buy the book. And it looks like I'm not the only one! I'm really not crazy about alot of the color choices in the book, but will add some of these patterns to my to-do list.

    I don't know if I made confession before, but I, too, have purchased the book from my local quilt store.
    And, I am reading through this thread and have decided that GCATHIE owns stock in that publishing company, or something! LOL
    Now, to get through the WIPs I have to get to working on making one of these fine quilts.
    GCATHIE is owed my grateful thanks for giving me something to do to keep the local economy going -- and, making the world a happier place by sharing the quilt with whomever in your immediate vicinity and our list.
    Good job!
