Default Autumn Fabric Boxes!

At last, mine is finally done. I want to add more glitz but think I will wait for the next box I make. What do you think?

Here is the link if you don't already have it.

Great idea. What size square did you start with?

Another great box. How close did you quilt it. Looks like a quarter inch. That's a lot of quilting on a little box but it certainly looks great.

And please, what are your dimensions?
peace

Thanks. I used 12" square. I plan to make bigger ones, especially want to figure out the right size to let a small kleenex box inside it.

Thank you. Yes, I used the edge of my quarter inch presser foot. Two things: It IS a lot of quilting... time consuming. However, I plan to use that same size for quilting next time because I LOVE how it looks in the end!

The base turned out about 3.5" squared and the height is about 4".

There's a posting with a tissue box at http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...s-t233079.html She used a 15" square. Ann
