Embroidery Hoop Box and accessories
Edited by magenta13 at 2017-12-6 11:05This sewing box is made from several embroidery hoops glued together using wood glue and assembled using several stitched pieces on linen.The hoops are varnished to give a deep brown colour.
For the stitched parts I used Edinburgh Country Mocha 3009 linen and Cresent Colors Smoke and Caterpillar threads.
The designs are mostly taken from Blackbird Designs leaflet Honeysuckle Manor.I used the inner box lid as more storage area for the small hoop and scissors.
The needlebook has a page for each of several types of needles. I made a pin keeper as part of the set.I may make a covered tape measure too in the near future.The contrast lining fabric is cotton in a coordinating colour.
For the knob on top I used a large wooden bead and covered it using needleweaving in DMC matching threads.
You can find a tutorial for making this box at Twisted Stitcher who has several other finishing tutorials.
