Well done Owl, I hope you get on OK, and please post a pic when it is done. Everyone loves to see the different variations.

I choose a third fabric it is the same color as the outside fabric just a different Kaffe Fassett print. Still working on it, should be finished tomorrow and I will post a picture.
My husband told me I would have had it done if I didn't spend much time on the computer LOL

Oh gosh...my DH tells me that kind of stuff all the time! As you can see...I pay lots of attention to him :roll:

Do hurry though, I can't wait to see your box!

Finished!
I picked out fabrics to make two more for my niece's, hope to start cutting out the cardboard today. Hopeing to keep them for Christmas, not sure that will work. I have a feeling I will want to give them up once they are finished :-)

Lacelady, thank you so much for the tutorial for the box!
I enjoyed making the first one and will a couple more.
Your directions are great!

Brush...that is a beautiful box! And I love the addition of the 3rd fabric...I just knew that would work! Isn't Lace just our hero for posting this tute????!!!!

Sandpat, thank you; Lace sure is our hero!

Beautiful box. I showed mine to a friend today and she asked for the pattern. Lesley I think you are going to be famous

Elle

Brush, you made a great job of making that box, and no one would know about your TV 'mistake'. There is a saying about there being no mistakes, only opportunities, isn't there? I'm so glad you were able to make it and better still, that you perhaps enjoyed it? I hope so.

Thanks, Elle, but please don't quote me as being the designer, it isn't mine, a lady named Dilys Fronks designed the original (I think/hope I put that somewhere near the front). All I did was to take pics of the steps as I was making mine. It's easier to follow pictures I think, than to try and make out what a diagram is meaning, and some people aren't good at following written instructions.
