Two strands of floss, a little thread and a few stitches: here's a very simple creation to make. Ask your haberdashery to keep empty skein boxes for you. They will serve as a pattern to reproduce them on thick printed paper. The design, though simple, is embroidered with Variation thread. Quick to make, these little boxes can be created in various styles for storage that is as cute as it is practical!

The models are embroidered on 5.5-point Aida fabric in ecru. To be embroidered on white or light-colored fabric.
