Here we have little quilted boxes: they are about 4 inches tall, 3 inches wide and deep. The face piece is a total of 12 inches by 4 inches. It is backed with timtex, lined, and densely quilted (about every half inch). Then the little pictorial piece is made independently and machine sewn to the front. Last, I make a bottom, zigzag it to the bottom of one face; steam-set the folds (every 3 inches); close zigzag all exposed edges; and then hand-sew the remaining four joining seams. They are mostly made of fancy fabrics: lames, silks, satins, velvets, like those things.... (2/1/12) Happy Valentine's Day Soon!
