Country Boxes
You may already be thinking "what the heck is a country box?"
A country box is an object that can be opened and closed for the transport or storage of other items.; Usually from rural America and most often the southern states.
One of the best examples are, hat boxes, cigar boxes, tin food storage containers, cheese boxes, older food boxes and much more.
This is a quilter challenge. The players are given a different tube of one or more country boxes each day for 24 days. They have chosen a theme and decorated the boxes to display their chosen theme. No two quilts are alike., although they all contain the same boxes and number of them.
Be sure to visit them all and see how ingenious this group of quilters can be.
Here are the players, just click their graphic and visit their page.

  I have chosen "Americana" for my Box QUILT.
