Another one finished!

This is the Circles pattern by Lois Kerschner I finished a couple of days ago. I sprayed a paper box gold on the outside, and with the blue suede spray on the inside. Then, I cut a circle to match the design area from thin cardboard and covered it with very thin quilt batting. I wrapped the piece around that and glued it to the top of the box. Last I added the gimp. First I glued it around the outside edge. When that was dry, I then glued each of the designs down the side all around the outside edge. The gimp is approximately and 1 1/4.

Yes, your finishing is wonderful, Pat. I'd never heard of the spray on suede coating. It does look a lot like it and so easy! Beats trying to cut, fit and blue a real piece of Ultrasuede!

Been there, tried that, won't do that again. LOL
