Actually I'm designing some pieces to decorate different shape of boxes, which Inga Madsen will make and teach in a new book. I asked her to make this book together, because I thought of the lovely little tatted pieces everybody has made, but perhaps has no practical use for them. Making these fabric covered boxes is such a funny thing to do and decorate them with a lovely tatting is superb. Naturally those boxes can also be decorated with embroidery or other techniques. I designed this piece for the oval box.

What a wonderful idea! That's a book I would really enjoy!
Beautiful work as always, Iris!
The tatting on the box is lovely. I am in LOVE with this bookmark pattern. It is absolutely exquisite, really!
I love this bookmark and I think finding ways to use the bits and pieces of tatting that we all end up with is an excellent idea.

Iris, what beatiful work and what a beautiful pattern!
I am truly in love with the bookmark and the color of the thread used is very victorian looking to me. I wonder if that pattern is anywhere or if maybe it's going to be? I would like to know the color of that thread if possible.
I really like the tatting on the blue box! Loveyly visiual
