moving boxes

Yesterday I spent several hours moving boxes of books after my latest shipment arrived from the printers. There were 122 boxes, each weighing about 13kg. That’s a lot!

The books were reprints of “The Right-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion”, “Elegant Hardanger Embroidery” and “Mountmellick Embroidery: Inspired by Nature”. Hopefully that’s enough to last me a long time!

Today I’ll be continuing with writing up the instructions for more of the projects in the Portuguese Whitework book. I completed the first draft of the runner yesterday. I might work on the sampler project today. It feels good to know that its inching forward!

    For ‘Elegant Hardanger Embroidery’, it is the fourth reprint of the revised book. For ‘Mountmellick Embroidery: Inspired by Nature’, it is the third reprint of the revised book. For ‘The Right-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion’ it is the second reprint. Previous reprints have all been 1000 copies each. These reprints are each 2000 books, so it will be a little longer before the next reprints, methinks! (sorry to hear of your lack of U key! what a pain!)
