Good Mail

Mr. Mailman brought me a package yesterday.  It was a surprise package.  I was notified that it was sent but I didn't know what in it.  I suspected it was the next kit in the Silver Needle Circle of Friends Club.  And it was!

The designer for the kit this time was The Cricket Collection.  The design started out as a pin cushion but kind of grew larger than that.

 I like the design.  Even though the linen is an overdyed, I like it too.  There are a lot of threads.  Four bunches to sort out and put on a thread card.

I love that the Silver Needle always encloses a few jelly bellies in their packages.
This is the gift:

It was specially made to match the project.

It was raining when I got up to walk so I had to wait until the rain was gone.  That meant I walked when it was light.  Daylight Savings Time changes next Sunday.  Early morning walking will be easier and lighter.  I saw eleven deer today.

I finished the box I wanted to make yesterday.  I'm trying to finish the other box today.  I'll show you tomorrow.
