NEWEST SEWING ADDICTION

Geta had this great tutorial on her blog recently and it is my current sewing addiction.  I love making these little boxes.  I had some leftover charms and decided to see how it would make up.  It turned out so cute that I went out and bought this cute charm pack, "Breakfast at Tiffany's" by Moda, to make a few more. Why did I buy yet another charm pack?  Because it was just so darn cute is why.
Then the decision is what should be the outside and what should be the inside?  Oh if all life's decisions where so difficult, hey? But I think I like this.
But, I just couldn't stop.  Aren't they just so cute?  Thank you Geta for a great tutorial.  Now what to do with them all.
Quilt happy,
Marilyn

Those are really cute! It is easy to get hooked. I remember making lots of those fabric bowls for every season. I have tons of charms and could possibly make a gazillion boxes! LOL

These are very cute - they would be fun to make out of leftover charm squares.

Adorable! I could see making one a tiny bit bigger (or smaller) and using one for a top and one for a bottom for a gift box for Christmas gifts. Or will they work that way as is since they are soft? Would slicing a charm in half for the sides and a full charm for the top make the cover for a gift box? I'll have to try these. Thanks.
