Well this is my first attempt at the box, only realised when looking at the photo I had forgotten to sand the top after parting it off! also not sure the spiral pattern works on this wood. Only wooden beads too, didn't have any so quickly made some, coloured with red ink.
I am not happy with it, but will pass it over to a friend who does sewing to see if the size is about right, I made it 60mm minus the to tenon so about 2" and a smidgen needle length.
