Ooh, it has been a good week for post. Look at what my "Twistin' Postman" delivered. And yes, he did ring twice.
Squeeeeeeeeeeeeee! I just love, love, love these new bags! JaneE is so generous. She even included one of the square tatting bags designed by Anne Bruvold.
This fabric might not appeal to everyone, but I really fancy it. (bought it ages ago) It has been languishing in my stash closet waiting for the perfect project. Wouldn't you agree that this was it?
My original orange bag is starting to look worn from me taking it (literally) everywhere. The new, round bag is taller for those times when I am teaching and need to use a tatting needle. (Not very often, but it pays to be prepared.)
What a luxury to have matching accessories! Two shuttles from my collection are included for scale.
The same shuttles at the bottom of the new tatting bag. Don't they look small? ツ
Of course, one very eager elf leapt right into the square bag for an impromptu game of hide and seek with his knitted pal, Arthur Dent. Don't panic, Ciarrán, but he's getting closer...
Not sure if the giggles permeating my kitchen are of the tiny, elfin variety or from The Sprout. Either way, we're greatly enjoying the parcel from across the pond! Thank you, Jane!
But that's not all. This box arrived two days later. Just a little box...
But sometimes the best things come in small packages, as Ciarrán will attest.
Honey Drizzle, Elderberry Jam and a few other Lizbeth®40 new Fall colors (not all of the them).
These will tide me over until the size 20 threads (and size 3) and new Aerlit® shuttles arrive.
Hoping you have time to indulge in lace-making endeavors today and can enjoy a cuppa tea too. See you next Tuesday for more communi-tea!

"So do you love the square bag? I love mine!"
Glad you liked the surprise one too - the square one. I looooove surprising people and you're such a lovely lass I really wanted it to be just that - a BIG surprise!!
I'm SO envious-these bags are gorgeous and that thread... (excuse the drool)
How exciting to receive those beautiful bags from Jane! And I couldn't help but notice the new Aerlit shuttles! I don't see them on Handy Hands site yet! I am looking forward to ordering them!
