I am jumping up & down - look what I received from Marion (m-fay)! It's beautiful & all ready to hang! In the package, Marion's note says "The Staircase to the Moon is a natural phenomenon caused by the rising of a full moon reflecting off the exposed mudflats in Roebuck Bay at extremely low tide, to create a beautiful optical illusion of a stairway reaching to the moon. This spectacular sight occurs from March through to November". This pic doesn't do it justice, with the applique & the use of a metallic thread. Absolutely love it! And of course the other goodies are so welcome too - a fat quarter, a cat carving & a pretty pin cushion secured with a cat button. Thank you so much!
I must apologize for the delay in posting - not sure when this arrived but found it on the table in my sunroom. Our mail delivery man goes to the extreme for no contact delivery & just tosses packages on the sidewalk or in the sunroom! (sigh)
