Hi all,
I'm on the look-out for a pattern for an Itsy-Bitsy Box - or it could be called an Itty Bitty Box. The one I saw at a recent quilting bee day out was a fabric covered container - about the size of a tin can - but I'm sure you can all imagine it is fabric covered over pieces of card.
Anyway it seems to be, say a rectangle, all stitched & turned, then a piece of card is pushed in, then a stitching line across the way, then another piece of card etc. Its all stitched together to make a sort of round container - at this point with no lid or base. Somehow a piece is fitted into this to make a base, but this base can flip up as well - because the whole box folds flat to take home with all your itty-bitty sewing scraps in.
I have done a Google search & had no joy finding anything so maybe one of these readers will know what I'm talking about. Thanks
