But that doesn't stop me from buying quilting fabric. I'm a sucker for bright patterns and 100% cotton. I'm hoping to make my first real, full-size quilt this year (it's on the sewing schedule for September).<BR/><BR/>Mom - I also know you have loads of amazing papers. To me, the boxes suggest dioramas. I know you've done up some boxes as decorative holders or gift boxes, but why not fill the insides, too, with art? Make the boxes art pieces? Think Joseph Cornell crossed with Faberge. That's the direction I would take.Sarah Maxell Crosbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09304010582783868627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8745167749685757601.post-28395065962560741262009-01-27T07:58:00.000-05:002009-01-27T07:58:00.000-05:00I'm sorry that I gave you the awful "I can't throw...I'm sorry that I gave you the awful "I can't throw it away" gene. I have also been taking stock in my studio. I have 12 boxes of craypas, six different kinds of watercolor paints and numerous boxes of various sizes. Any ideas how to combine the three?

I am also ~~~very~~~ frugal so 13" scraps turn into hankies and yard pieces turn into pillow cases. I also make my own napkins.....so, if you are at least 20" square in my syash you become a napkin whether you match anything or not.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
