In the evenings I like to sit and applique or sew on a binding. Things are always falling down in between the couch cushions. I had a really cool pink ruler and asked my husband if he could make me a little box to hold all my accouterments. I love it! It is 4 x 7, not too small and not too big.
The ruler was from Morgantown which is nearby so I had him "fussy cut" the name out. It took him about 5 minutes to make it.
My husband Bob, is a building contractor and has lots of tools. In a way sewing and carpentry are very similar.......This is his workshop.
Lots of scraps......
Lots of hand tools....
Some good storage ideas.......I told him I needed one of these too.
A stash.........
Interesting storage containers.....
Precuts! I could not resist that one....
More hammers than he could use at once.......I am so not judging!
Creative storage......
Maybe that is why he gets my whole quilting thing? The other day he told me the next box he makes he would do a little differently, mitering the corners. Oh and by the way he bought some Omnigrid rulers to use when he is drafting plans. He said the 1/4' is perfect for what he needs. See quilting/carpentry, they are so alike!
