Construction Zone

I spent yesterday doing most of the prep work to assemble Betsy Morgan's Christmas Spirit etui.

There are now way too many little stacks of stuff on my work surface.

I still have to make twisted cords--four of them--and do a little embellishment for the lid, but I think,  before I do those things, I want to sew some parts together. Having all these bits and pieces floating around makes me just a tad bugnutz crazy. No reason to make that state of mind worse!
