Default Fabric Boxes, just had to show this one

I know a lot of pictures of fabric boxes have been posted, I jumped on the band wagon. There are a lot of people at my work that I like to remember with a small homemade gift at Christmas and other holidays. Football is very popular in the state of Alabama and there are several die hard fans. I took pictures of a few I have made.

These are the ones for Thanksgiving

These are the Alabama ones with Football players and footballs as the contrasting fabric

Alabama one with hounds tooth fabric.
The last two were taken with my cell phone and are a little fuzzy
But I love how the boxes turned out.

Wouldn't these boxes be a great way to use orphan blocks? May try this today.

Beautiful boxes. I too jumped on the band wagon and made a box, which I use to toss my thread clippings in rather than on the floor. I ordered a layer cake bundle and decided I would make some more and fill them with home made goodies for holiday office gifts. Love the last box with the black and white check fabric.

I never get tired of looking at these fabric boxes, it's so much fun to see each and every one. Like the variety in the fabrics you chose especially the Alabama fabric!

Love looking at these little boxes and never get tired of looking at them. Love mug rugs too. Yours are fantastic.

Thanks for the great comments. I haven't made the Auburn ones yet but plan on it and even a Georgia Bulldog and a Florida Gator. NO Tennessee or LSU though. Have a great day.
