Window Boxes - Finished!

Window Boxes is finished!  It reminds me of window panes and it is made of boxes. 

The front:



The back:




The official window and boxes pose:


Good thing we moved recently and still have all the boxes around for the photo shoot.


 A close up of the back.  It is a polka-dot fabric.  And it is the first FMQ quilt that I've done.  And the first one on my quilting frame.  There are many places where my lines aren't as straight as they should be, but overall I'm very happy with it.  And it went so much more quickly!  And I didn't have to wrangle the quilt through a small necked sewing machine!


It finished up at 34.5" square.  The pattern is for sale here (baby and throw sizes).  This quilt is also for sale...for now you can contact me directly if interested.

Linking up with TNT Thursday, Whoop-whoop Friday, LAFF, sew & tell, Fabric Tuesday, and Quilting by the River

  22. Instead, I’ve done the next best thing for Best compound bow for hunting you the latest models from the virtual showroom floor, and spoken to the brands’ marketing managers and engineers to get the intel. Honestly, I was shocked. While it’s customary and expected for kingpin bow makers to unveil a new lineup each and every year, I figured the current pandemic would halt things a bit. That’s not the case. Not only did bow manufacturers launch new products, but they’ve launched big ones.Best compound bow for beginners

  23. once you add the brand to a more prominent place like the middle of the custom boxes with logo or the top of the box with vibrant colors, it's bound to leave an enduring impression in minds of new customers and make them remember your product for an extended time.

  26. Custom Window Boxes is meant to display what’s exactly inside the box. When a customer sees the product, the first thing that is determined by the brain, whether the product is pleasant or unpleasant. The touch and see factor allows the customers to observe the product ideally.
