    Default Ouch! Shot myself in the foot.....

    This time I really did it...got ahead of myself so far in making this box I forgot to quilt it! I'm always getting ahead of myself but darn it this really aggravates me. What do you think....should I take it apart and quilt it?
    P.S. I used Heat and Bond iron-on adhesive, Superior Hold, and I'm please with the result. The box is firm and holds its shape but not bulky.

    It looks good to me, I love the way the mask are on the flaps! I think it depends on if you want to tear it apart or if you are happy with it now!

    I think it is gorgeous just as it is now. I wouldn't change it.

    First I LOVE your fabrics!!!
    Second I think it looks great just the way it is. Especially since you used
    a super strong fusible, you might end up damaging the fabric if you tried
    to take it apart.

    However if you think it must be quilted how about making another box
    and (try) to remember to quilt it.

    Just my thoughts though.

    It is beautiful! Since it appears to be stable without quilting I don't see the need to take it apart and quilt it.

    Looks good the way it is. I am not sure if you need the addition of the quilting to keep it together.
