Time for Sew and Tell!
Day Four
Day Four
Today's feature artist is Caroline Booth, the Needle Quirks Queen!
In her note to me she says she's making the best of being cooped up and it's obvious she is getting lots accomplished in her sewing space!
Having corresponded with Caroline for a while now, I know that pillow making is a passion for her. She is especially gifted at design them in a multitude of interesting ways.Pillow making is truly one of her specialties! This one is designed using all built-in designs and features on her Brother Luminaire.
The next photo is hopping with happy thoughts and full of great ideas.
I'll let her describe these delightful projects in her own words.
"I wanted to share a fun little fabric box that I learned how to make this week while “locked in” my happy place. I wanted a rustic look for this one to somewhat mimic a vintage wooden box so I used a painter’s canvas to construct the outer box. Peltex 71F gives the box it’s structure and the interior fabric is a nice quilting cotton. The Peltex is also used to give the handles some structure and they are attached to the box with snap rivets.
This was such a fun project to make that I plan on making several for Christmas gifts using holiday themed fabrics. The pattern actually calls for two fat quarters so it doesn’t require much fabric and it’s a fairly quick project to complete, depending on how you choose to embellish it."

Thank you Caroline! I know I speak for everyone in saying that we're so happy you shared all these with us.
