Cute Karen! I have not tried the dies, I am sure they make for accurate cutting, but aren\'t they very wasteful for the amount of fabric? Or am I mislead?

I got the first coat of paint on everything that is going to be white, the head board flower box #2 & inside #3, the wood box for parcels #4, and the big lattice head board storage bench #1. The photos are misleading the lattice bench is queen size & the flower box head board is twin. The 3rd shot shows that the bottom is supported but no enclosed. That is support flower pots and let them drain. The supports will rot first and are easily replaced.
Everything needs a 2nd coat and most of those projects will also get some kind of statement painted on them. At this point I am considering \"Faith is like a tiny seed, when planted it will grow\" a line from a Primary children\'s song for plant box.
The package box for son & wife, I have not decided but considering \"A home without a cat is just a house\" \"the Andersons\" with a outline of 2 cats. My lattice bench, I just can\'t decide yet. I want something like, \"Sit still and listen, if you want the answers to your prayers\"

I also got some of the exterior of the house painted. Wouldn\'t know, it rained last night? I know of my paint will be fine, some of the other, probably not. *sigh*.
