Inside the box were two copies of this 2011 Sewing Calendar:
The calendar featues instructions and pattern pieces for over 100 projects from different crafters - including my bauble ornaments. I'd totally forgotten it was due to be published this month!
Many of the projects included in the calendar are available online but it's a fun alternative to a craft book and a great way to discover some new crafty bloggers. I think it would also make a great gift for the sort of people who love sewing but who are a bit scared of the internet and who are currently missing out on the wonders of the online crafting universe.
What a lovely thing to be involved in, and such a nice surprise when you have forgotten about such things and they just turn up in the post some time later when it is the last thing on your mind - like finding a £10 note in the pocket of a coat you haven't worn since the previous winter!
