My eye is behaving very well, and I am amazed at how much I can see, not sure now that I need to hurry in to get new specs - that will save some money!
I have posted a series of photos as I have often had queries as to how I have made things - I usually think I am just following what all you other clever people are doing, but in any case this box started with a piece of paper fabric I made months ago (a la Beryl Taylor) with some paper napkin torn up - I suspect as part of Ratty Tatty Papers. I fused some vliesofix (unpainted this time) over the top, then laid out some of muy thread scraps - I don't think I ever need to buy any more threads, my drawers will no longer close properly I have so many. That is unlikely to stop me from purchasing the next gorgeous thread I see though.

Glad your eye is doing so well - you may not need glasses, but it takes about 6 weeks for the eye muscles to settle down after surgery apparently which is why they make us wait so long. Your trinket box is gorgeous and I love the colours. Thanks for the method.
ReplyDeleteThe trinket box is gorgeous Robin and I am one of your friends who is lucky enough to own one of them.
ReplyDeleteLovely little trinket box. I am so glad that your eye op has worked so well.
ReplyDeleteI love this trinket box Robin. I didnt need to get new glasses after my cataract op, but then I had had them for a while and they predated the other eye op but I couldnt believe it.
ReplyDeleteI too am procrastinating although I seem to be getting into the way of things at the moment a bit more.
What a fabulous box you have made. Thank you for sharing it with us.
