Here is one that I altered using actual patterns, some Basic Grey sewing scrapbook paper and some fabric I had. The scissor, thimble and needle holder was once a necklace. It was another thrift store find. I found a lot of old jewelry while I was up in Oregon. I had held onto it for a long time and finally I found just the right use for it. I used Idea-logy type charms to spell out Sewing Box and that is an actual zipper, spool of thread and bobbin.

What a fun box! You're soooo creative!
ReplyDeleteNancy,
ReplyDeleteI just love everything you make...That box is beautiful. I'd guess you'd store sewing ephemera inside?
Tried to post earlier & say how I LOVE the knit purses...but couldn't ;o(
Here we go again!!!!!
Hugs, Julie A
This is really cool! You have a great way of putting things together, it just works! Love it!
ReplyDeleteOh dear! When I said, "store ephemera" in the sewing box. I wondered if the contents would stay, all arranged & pretty, or get used in future projects! Clear as mud?
ReplyDeleteI can't bring myself to USE all the old sewing stuff I guard like it's in Fort Knox.
That's why I'm here, to learn from the Queen of Just-Use-It!
thanks Nancy ;o)
Hugs, Julie
