Fabric boxes...( when you're such a smarty pants you think you don't need to print directions)

[Pandabear]

It's not what I meant to make, but it'll do for cocktail napkins...or something. Attachment 58670
I'm sure my error had nothing to do with the empty wine glass in the background.

It's pretty!! May I ask what size fabric did you use? And did you still use the 2" for the corners?

Kelly.. awesome idea. I was going to lope those bits off. Now I'm rethinking.

Here's my mine..



I need better lighting.. it's purple on the outside and blue on the inside

Grace-Ann, This little whoops of yours just proves my theory that things are never a disaster, but always a creation. I think it would make a great Napkin holder. Now you can whip up a few more.

Seems like I'm not the only one being a smarty pants this evening...I'm watching a movie...kinda sorta...

All cheekiness (Mary Poppins) aside, I'd really love to know how you pulled this off!
What a lovely mistake!

I love the shape of this one, too! I need to jump on this fabric box band wagon - who needs quilts?

Instead of folding in half and then doing the triangle thing, did you just fold up 2 inches and then sew?

I appreciate the accolades. I'll post instructions on how to do fabric boxes the wrong way tomorrow. I don't think I can do it without pictures and I'm too lazy to do that now. I was thinking about creating a pattern and writing a book and making millions but it sounds like too much trouble. I'd rather sew.

Ha! I was purposely trying to do this the other day and even posted because I couldn't figure it out and here you come and do this effortlessly! I will patiently wait for your instructions.

Waiting for the instructions here too! I like all of your fabric boxes, ladies.

I posted directions to my new blog....So Many Quilts, So Little Time!
