This trinket box is way to small for them. It would hold a necklace or earrings. The Cha Cha Cha, will be soon enough, I am told I walked 550 steps this morning, not bad since the ground is hilly and the last lap is uphill. Alice - I always found sewing very relaxing. I have had the needles and threads out already, doing some alteration work for Elly. A little bit each day and it is all hand sewing. Not ready to sit at the machine yet. That will come. Magpie - It would need to be something very small. Gaelikaa - we all learn from each other. Darlene - I remember dainty hankies and have about three left. This trinket box is way to small for them.

I knew it would be beautiful but useful too? Don't know if you've noticed but I'm not blogging but a couple times a week now. It's because I've rediscovered my sewing room--and finished up a rag quilt I've been working on since our Las Vegas years (or at least 8 years!). So I expect I'll be back sewing again this winter; can hardly wait. Fancy that! I knew it would be beautiful but useful too?

It could hold any treasure you want to put in it. I would put pretty handkerchiefs in it, (As if anyone has those anymore.) I used to have many lacy handkies from my great grandmother, but tissues have replaced them and I only have one left. I think I lost the others during our many moves, along with other keep sakes. They were so lovely and now, so passe. I hope you are continuing to recover nicely Grannymar. I was thinking we might do the Cha Cha Cha when you are up to it. What a lovely cache box.
