    Virginia,

     

    This is absolutely beautiful! I’m so glad you shared this with us, and I’m thrilled you were able to transfer the skills you’ve learnt into something so special to you!

    I’m particularly impressed with the mitred corners on the inside of the lid and how you got the grain of the outer fabric so well lined up.

    I love the use of the…[Read more]

    Sarah,

    It looks to me as though the calculator for the lid ADDs a mm to the inner lid dimension.  Shouldn’t it be subtracting 1 mm?

    Hi Sarah,

    box exterior

    Thanks for your exceptional instructions!

    I originally signed up for this class because I wanted to make an acid-free decorative box to house a family heirloom bobbin lace collar. My first box was too small for the job so I made a second, larger one to the required measurements.

    The collar was from a silk gown worn in 1898 by my…[Read more]

    Hi Elizabeth,

    Your stitching looks great! You are right, there are a lot of twists and turns:) Catherine

    I’ve managed to finish the whale and waves.  The enlargement greatly helped the ease of stitching.  All those twists and turns in the waves definitely kept me on my toes.
