It did. :)

Here are a couple of pics. The first one shows them nested inside each other, and the second one shows all three boxes separately. :)

Thanks again to frenchfryqueen for posting the link to the pattern! Here's the link, if anyone else might be interested. http://seaside-stitches.blogspot.com...-tutorial.html

Love the fabric and boxes. I've made a couple using 10 & 12" squares, but love the tall one. How big is the square and what measurement for the corners? Thanks.

I used the following measurements:

10" = 2" corners
12" = 2-1/2" corners
14" = 3" corners

Those came out really cute! I've been enjoying the ones I made to hold Halloween candy, but the candy keeps disappearing (kids!). I used batting along with some fusible interfacing to make them stiffer, but I might try your felt trick. I just came across some white felt gifted to me by my MIL and I had no idea what to use it for, especially since I'm done making soccer banners (yay!).
