[Nfb-krafters-korner] Hey you are very quiet.

Hi sharon; 
When the cleanex box is sitting on the table, the cover will fit over
it, rather snugly, with a square hole at the top, for the cleanex to
come out.  If your friend cut the canvis on the lines, you should not
have any gadid edges.
I think the stitch you mean, is described below.  I just call it a
diaginal stitch.
Think of your canvis as graph paper.  Go in square 1, up 1 and over one,
then down through that square.  You have made a small diaginal from the
lower left to the upper right.  Continue across the row.  You can also
start a row with this small diaginal then expand to up two squares and
over two squares.  Finish the row and end with a small diaginal.  
Squares can also be made with this method.  I can send you a few samples
if you want.
Describe better where your jagid edges are.  Sounds to me like she cut
something wrong.  
Do you want me to send you a set of pre cut pieces.  I have some on
hand.

Terry

Terry and all,

Yes, these ideas were helpful.  thanks!  Just to clarify, are you saying
that there will only be an opening to put the box inside the cover, on
one side and the top, so that you have to slide it in?  By the way, it's
a cube shape.  Also, the hole has jagged areas, which has been
challenging.  I've ended up making the smallest stitch, across one
horizontal bar and in the same column, along the uneven edging.  Is
there a name for this stitch?
