So, here's the finished box. Number one of two. I used the Flurry Heartache for the top and a simple edging. On the sides are small motifs which I stuck on.
To put everything together I first stitched the heart onto the piece of black fabric.
Then I stitched the inner edge of the edging to it too.
Finally I sewed the picots on the outer edge of the edging to the actual box. Fiddly and not helped by my usual self punishment of using invisible sewing thread!!! One day I'll learn NOT to use that but use something I can actually SEEEEEE!! It needs to be done during daylight hours and also with a good light on too. Still it's done - now to find the other box and do that too!!!!
