I liked the boxes as well but for some reason, can't download the pattern. It shows
as highlighted in red don't know if that means something

with the download, i think if you scroll down the main text on the page and click on where it says download it here, that works, rather than clicking on what looks like a link in the sidebar.

Have any of you tried Jim's Printables?

Brilliant site for ready illustrated templates. Normally aimed at the dollshouse crowd, but you will find ready illustrated templates on every subject imaginable including lots of boxes - ready to print - all free!

I've made some Victorian hat boxes - really turned out well, and could do for favors etc

I tried putting in the link, but it won't copy so I'm sorry you'll have to do a search for the site, but it's easy to find.

Thanks everyone for all the great links since I last visited. Plenty to keep us busy.
