This is a neat idea!  If the local SCA needlework groups out here 
ever get that organized, perhaps we shall do just such a thing :)

Out here in Atlantia (mid-Atlantic region of the SCA), there are 
occasional competitions held, where all items entered go into just 
such a treasure chest.  In addition to needlework, one sees small 
boxes, leather pouches, even jewelry that gets donated to the 
"treasure chest."
