    I really want to make one as well - tell us more about your organizing box - I could put it in the car and work on it in the school pick up line

    Thanks for all the compliments on my flower. I bought the box from Joann fabrics. I can't close the lid, but it doesn't go very far from my chair. I am sure that I won't finish any time soon, one reply said that her's wasnt done after 19 years. I will give myself a 10 year time limit, lol. ;)

    I bought the container for joanns, it don't have anything to store the finished flowers. I cant decide what white fabric I want to us. I like that yours is in different shades of one color, maybe in ten years I will do another one in one color.

I love the way you have it organized. I have mine in a tin I bought but yours is so neat. Awesome. Now how to figure out how to share photos, it will be my first attempt.
