I love the jewel box pattern. I started one several years ago when my cousin-in-law was pregnant. Her daughter is now... six? seven? What happened is that I used scraps, and well, it's just, .... boring. I got bored making it. I didn't think (and still don't think) that it's a little girl's quilt. And frankly I don't think it's all that interesting for anyone.

The black background in the one linked to above is very dramatic though. I may try it again at some later date. In the meantime, I keep working slowly but surely away at this undesirable UFO jewel box. I carry the scraps in a zip lock back and hand piece a little here and a little there.
