This is the completed box for my sister in law, she is a recent breast cancer survivor. The top is a pattern by Sue Mey, and the rest of the box I used Steve Goods basket box design. Thank you everyone who helped me decide on the pink color. Here it is in pink, I will see her this weekend, if I don't get snowed in. Thanks again.

Very nicely done Mark.  A real tribute to your love for your sister-in-law! 

I'll have to find the pattern to make one for my sister-in-law as well.  (The Sue Mey part, I'm not ready for scroll sawn boxes.)
