Popular Post scrollerpete Posted October 28, 2019 Popular Post Report Posted October 28, 2019 My wife wanted a Kleenex box cover to match the kitchen decor, so she contacted Sue and she made the following pattern. Then the hubby went to work and now we have the result. Wife is happy and husband has a happy life LOL JimErn, Be_O_Be, RabidAlien and 9 others 12 Quote
rdatelle Posted October 28, 2019 Report Posted October 28, 2019 I was just looking at those the other day. Were they hard to put together. You did a great job. Quote
heppnerguy Posted October 28, 2019 Report Posted October 28, 2019 Sue Mey puts out a lot of really great patterns. I have several of hers. This Kleenex box is really a delicate and interesting one, indeed. Easy to see why you have a happy wife and are enjoying it yourself. Way to go. Dick heppnerguy scrollerpete 1 Quote

No they are easy, I measured the sides and cut them with my chop saw, so it is easy to have a perfect match and I jut used my round sander to round up the edges. I also cut the hummingbird pattern from Sue. Quote
trackman Posted October 28, 2019 Report Posted October 28, 2019 I have trouble getting things to stay square while gluing. How you do it? OzarkSawdust 1 Quote

I wait until the glue becomes tacky before applying the clamps to it. I used Weldbond glue. Edited October 29, 2019 by scrollerpete Quote
