the arrival

my very first tapestry has arrived safe and sound after traveling several oceans and one hemisphere, so now i can show you the whole piece without ruining the surprise. and for anyone who traveled with me through my photo major, the translucent white cloth is cheese cloth, of course.



the lovely treat for me are the images she sent me of receiving the package and then opening it, which is part of the fun i can't partake in with snail mail {though i adore the ritual of sending and receiving mail as a whole}. the note on the package says: a little bit of trivia: this envelope originated from waterdown, ontario with cameron. he put the smiley faces on it. :)
he's a mutual friend and i found it particularly satisfying to pass forward the joy of receiving mail-magic to someone he's also connected to.
