Box of Delights

This box has been with me for longer than Niamh's been around but it's only over the weekend that it actually reached a finished state!

It's definitely worth the wait!

Gorgeous new box

And I love the base of the box

The inside is as beautiful as the outside, although it's taken me 2 years to get it just right.

The inside is as gorgeous as outside

Every piece of the inside is stitched in a different stitch pattern - great fun!

How many monkeys can you .....


I love the top of this box

Good enough to eat!

Hi Lesley,

I know it's old post of 2012 but like to know if do you have patterns for this beautiful Box of Delights that you made for two years that time? Please let me know thanks!
