    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)

    What a beautiful theme and table runner, Marion! It is gorgeous. What an interesting phenomenon. Reason 101 to someday visit Australia.

    Just checking in to let you know I'm still waiting. I DO know it will eventually arrive. I might try some detective work to see where it's coming from... Just looking for time fillers

    Hi Guys,

    Lawsonmugs.... the little blue thing is a bag with a clip. I have it attached to my handbag now so I will always have a bag if I start going back to the shops..... although we are starting to have lockdowns again!

    Marion.... I know yours in on the way!

    Hugs

    Caroline
