Again with the ribbing.

Again with the ribbing.  


I had really hoped to get it done but because I am aiming for 5 inches of ribbing, I knew it was just a dream.  I can't do that in a day.  I deeply and sincerely envy those who can. One more day.

I am mostly going to be working on some boxes.  When Keith did the flooring in summer, one of the changes he made was to take out one range of cabinets.  We did not really use them.  He put in a set of shelving to replace them and I really like it.  The only thing I miss is the junk drawer. A kitchen without a junk drawer is inconceivable to me.  

My job is to make the drawer boxes for pens and paper, batteries, basic meds.  I am making the boxes like this tutorial.  



Pretty simple, yes?  Making them is going to take some time, though and there are 5 boxes.  That's a lot of cardboard to cut and a lot of fabric to sew.   I am using the bolt of black cotton that I bought in spring.  It's really nice knowing I had it on hand and that there is lots available.  Fabric stash.  It's a good thing.
