This project is number 11.
I entered a swap on IG last year and made a Star Wars themed package for my partner.
A practice piece was left over - a stitchy R2D2. I felt it should become something so ordered a bit of Star Wars fabric from Frumble Fabric, as you do....
And it quickly became storage for charm squares. It was made with four rectangles, and a square bottom. I used car headliner as the stiffener and is works like a dream. (Tip received from Di @wllowbeckdesigns). As this is a techno style project I left the material visible on the inside and finished of the raw edges with a bit of wide ribbon hand stitched in place, which was the longest bit of the project!
It's full already! And looking out at me from my fabric shelves - much prettier than the cardboard shoe box it replaced. I might have to make a few more...
I will be linking this project to the Finish-A-Long 2016 at the end of quarter 2
Think of the dent we could make in our stashes if we converted it into useful storage like this!
