My Sampler Garden Box....I started on the construction of the actual box itself yesterday. It still has quite a way to go to be finished. I still have the final bottom to attach and then construct the lid itself. (don't tell....I haven't finished stitching all the accessory pieces yet! :p )
My Swan Sampler Guild Quaker Box WIP. This is the front of the box, where I have to finish the swans (over one):
The back portion of the box WIP:
I think it's "spring fever." I just cannot seem to get myself stitching on anything for very long. This little guy is from Judy Odell's Sampler Garden. He is about all I have accomplished in the past few days that is worth showing. I keep flitting about from one thing to another....
Since the finishing class for this is fast approaching (May), I decided that I had better get it done! I have a little bit more on the top piece (with the bunnies) for it to be done. But...then there are the accessories to stitch yet!! This picture is a bit odd, in that I folded the edges of the fabric where the different pieces meet.
I have a very nice deep purple trim that I am going to use to trim the box, instead of ribbon, plus I was thinking of putting a handle on the lid to be able to lift the lid off,too.
Here's what I have done on the top for my Sampler Garden Casket. I sequenced stitched the bunnies. Takes a bit more time, but now they look identical!
