    Thanks for being so generous in showing us your baskets and where to find the tutorial. That is just one of the many reasons I am loyal to watching Quilting Board first in the mornings.

    This tutorial has gotten a lot of spin off threads! I'm so glad everyone has started making the boxes. Feel free to post your boxes here, as well, so we can see them all together!

    What a wonderful link - just in time for the holidays. I saw the boxes others made and had to do a quick search for the instructions. Love QB! And thanks frenchfryqueen for posting.

    I made another one last week to give as a thank-you gift to my best friend for looking in on our house while we were on vacation. I filled it with pecan turtles I bought from the Russell Stover Outlet on the way home! Yum yum.

    This one turned out much better. I used up the last of this fabric, too.

    I used a 14" square, but I only did 2.5" on the corners, so it made a nice wide, round opening at the top. I also flattened the inside corners on themselves and sewed them rather than fold them over. I saw someone made that modification and I really liked the way it looked. It was also easier to sew!
