What's Inside the August 2020 Quilty Box?

What's inside the August 2020 Quilty Box?  Somehow I got behind on my Quilty Box posts. It's almost time for the September box to arrive, and the August box is soooo good!  Well, better late than never, they say.  Here it is:

When you first open Quilty Box, it's like opening a gift.  Everything is beautifully wrapped in tissue.  So nice.

Here's the contents of the August Box.  

This box's featured artist is Guicy Guice.  It's his second time in Quilty Box.  I made his quilt pattern, Feathering from the previous box.  I named my version "Happy Scrappy". You can see that project here: Happy Scrappy Quilt 

His new fabric collection, Prisim, by Andover is this month's fabric.  So inspirational.  I love the colors and designs in this group so very much.

The Bundles of Inspiration magazine has his Seaglass pattern, shown on the front.  I enjoyed reading the interview with Guicy Guice.  He speaks about his love of color, which I share.  Color has been a lifelong love of mine as well.

The Seaglass quilt has a special acrylic template that is included in this month's box.  What a fun shape.

This seam guide looks handy.  It comes with a little pink chain so you can attach it to something so you don't lose it.  I'm going to keep it close to my machine.  I'm always checking my seams for accuracy.

The Slice Precision cutter has a ceramic blade and claims to be "finger friendly".  I'm sure this is good for cutting around templates, but I may give it to my teenage son.  He sculpts weapons and armor models out of cardboard and normally uses an Exacto knife.  He may get more use and enjoyment out of this tool more than me.

This month's thread is a vibrant variegated green to blend with and accent the fabrics in the Prisim collection.  Just looking at this thread makes me want to sew.
