My first Garden Sewing Box was designed and created in 2005.
The 2nd one was finished late last year.
I just finished the 3rd. one. Why a third one? Well, since the first one was made years ago, I had to check out my original notes and construct another version of it. After it was completed, my husband asked if I had documented, with photos, all the steps taken along the way. Sheepishly, I shook my head. I had taken a few photos but not to the extent for presenting an online course. You see, he's a curriculum developer and has graciously taken on the job of writing up the instructions with an abundance of photos and sketches. In other words, this is a pictorial, step by step instruction package, for creating my Garden Sewing Box.
These art pieces don't have to be sewing boxes but can be a treasure or jewellery box, trinket holder . . . You see what I mean!
Anyway, feast your eyes! It's very dimensional. Bits of foliage and flowers stick out here and there!
It's too late now, but I should have used a lighter green thread for my name and date on the bottom.
Enjoy and stay safe!
This is beautiful Judy! How big is it? I love all the wonderful textures that I can see in the photos.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Mary Anne. The bottom is 4" square graduating to 5" around the opening and is 6" high from the base to the tips.
