this may have been posted near a month ago, but good golly miss molly, but your entrepreneurial!!! (never too late to say, or hear, that! ;) )
you live up to the saying: necessity is the mother of invention.
That looks good as store bought!
I paid over a $100 for mine, but at least my hubby and his bf made me a light box for free.
I just love it. It's a wooden box, with a sliding glass top, with a light inside and has a handle on the side.
I truly love that thing and take extra care with it.
That's one thing about us quilters, we may have a lot of nice things, but we DO appreciate them. :-D
