hi there!
don't you just love that feeling of
anticipation?
i had just got home,
the groceries still in the boot of the car
&
there was the postie
with a parcel in her hand,
looking worried as
kara hooted around the front yard
doing her best to be a guard dog.
i relieved her of her parcel
&
scooted inside,
arms weighed down with bags
&
the precious parcel...
flung down my bag,
tossed down the new mag
&
the parcel.
shoved the groceries away!
made a cup of tea
&
examined my parcel...
a little bit retro...
a little bit modern...
a little bit british...
a little bit amy butler!
now i have
inspiration...my new mag,
aspiration..i'm planning to sew
&
as long as i don't expire from
procrastination
i'll soon have plenty to show and tell!
naturally Carol xox
Nothing beats a parcel - especially one containing fabric! Looking forward to seeing what you make with it all (especially the top one!).
