I've sent well-taped packages, without any problem. As long as the box isn't only being held together by tape - as in bulging past it's normal breaking point - it'll probably be okay.

We've already seen today's high for the day. Cold front coming in this morning & dropping us down into the 40's. Freeze warnings out for tonight too. Winds are going to make it feel even colder too. I think I'll stay in & do some sewing.

Today's clue: you have "waterfront" property.
When I took the dog out this morning, there was a cold, misty wind blowing. It's already dropped from 57 degrees (around 8:30-ish am) to 52 degrees (10:15 am).

BTW, I have 'waterside' property, if our little creek counts.

I'm working on batik placemats for my parents who live in Cleveland. My Mom was visiting last week and selected fabrics with me. I wanted to keep them simple so that I'd be sure to have them done in time. Thinking about appliqueing a poppy with a long stem on one side to match their dishes.... Looking forward to seeing a bit of white stuff tomorrow :-)[ATTACH=CONFIG]446454[/ATTACH]
Beautiful! Your mom will love those!

I haven't yet received a package and I'm perfectly fine with that! Can't open it yet, anyway!

Yes - cold in MN the last couple days. Looks like it'll warm up to the high 40s by the weekend, though. But raking, Dedemac? I'm still waiting for the leaves to fall! I think the city lawn waste pick-up ends in the next couple weeks and here I wait for the leaves to come down! I haven't sent out my package yet either, but it's ready. I keep thinking I may add a thing or two (and I might!)...

WHAT!! Waterfront property? I do believe that I mentioned something about waterfront property, but does that include an irrigation canal? I am thinking a creek is more like it. CINDY............I think you are teasing me!!
