Sometimes when I climb the steps to my house, and dawdle up the path towards the front door, I see a box on the doorstep - well .... no matter what I was planning to do when I got inside, it is no longer relevant! What's in the box? It absolutely has to be opened immediately to reveal it's treasure! And that of course is always followed by a period of patting and stacking, folding and smoothing the treasures - the dusting can wait!!! But sometimes I find the box as I am leaving the house and that, I tell you, is sheer agony, because it's usually as I'm running just a smidgen late to go and pick up the child from school or soccer practice or going to watch his soccer match. And I can't open the box first!!! It's really hard to concentrate on a soccer game when there's a box to be opened!! The sight of a fairly ugly but practical brown cardboard box, all taped up, sitting on the doorstep is enough to banish the wintry gloom. So, this is what the box revealed on Friday.... .... and this.... ... and in a smaller, plastic package where these....
... and some of these....
... it's easy to see why I like boxes (and small plastic packages) on the doorstep isn't it. And I've even been super organised and got them onto the website already :)
Keep warm and happy stitching
