There I was, occupied by my normal Monday morning chores, when I hear a truck in the driveway. I am not expecting anyone, and it sounds suspiciously like a UPS truck, so I look out the window. It is! It is a UPS truck! My heart goes pitty pat and I run to the front door, childishly thrilled at the prospect of new packages, and I open the door while Dave, my local UPS delivery person is still walking up the front walk. He said he had an express package for me today so I get to see him earlier than usual.
And here it is:
The new fall Marfy! I admit it, I was greedy and selfish and a total spendthrift: I paid the extra for express shipping. It was a little over $5 more, maybe almost $6, especially as the dollar was higher against the Euro last week than it is now. It was no matter. It was my birthday and I felt like indulging myself.
I looked through it briefly with a second cup of coffee — many nice patterns. I need more time to peruse the catalog more carefully. I tend to get over excited at first, loving everything, filled with glee and excitement, and then I need to calm down and sit back and look more analytically. That will have to wait.
But it is true — there are 8 free patterns, and I actually like and might make some of them! They also included a summary page at the front of the catalog showing the free patterns all together, so you don’t have to go searching through the book.
