COMPENDIUM OF CURIOSITIES VOL 2 - PAGES 33 & 34

The current challenge from Linda runs for 2 weeks because it's a biggy.
Either start a new configuration box or tray or continue with one already started, either way, so long as you follow the instructions on pages 33 & 34 of Tim's book, you can enter this time round.
I have a large box which I started ages ago but keep pinching bits off and adding other things. The latest bit that was added is a small compartment to the top made by my friend Lindsay Mason. Here is my box to date:

I have a special little shelf in my bedroom where I keep my box. It's a constant source of memories too. I love it to bits.
I used all sorts of Tim goodies including papers, tissue tape, Idea-o-logy, etc and added my own personal trinkets such as a photo of my 3 boys taken nearly 40yrs ago, my pram mobile - which is Victorian and was given to me by my god Mother, my school badge, oh! and a little frog that one day I hope to kiss so it turns into a Prince LOL.
I wonder what I shall do to my box next.........

MY PAL'S BIRTHDAY

Yesterday was my friend Sylvia's birthday. She is the lady who makes the most amazingly gorgeous patchwork quilts - amongst other beautiful things. She has a quilt on the go at the moment and has promised to send me a photo of the finished article so that I can blog it for you all to share her magic.
Well, as she is so talented, I really bit the bullet and made her a configuration box for her birthday. I used a sewing theme, but was really nervous that it would meet her standards. As it was, she was thrilled to bits with it.

I hope she had a super day in her beautiful home county of Devon.
