What the Towels were for

The towels and face cloths that I've been adding tatting to were intended as packing for this toy tractor that my husband bought by the side of the road in Zimbabwe. I thought they'd be more fun than bubble wrap.
 It's not an easy thing to parcel up, and it's going to be expensive to post, even by surface mail.
I hope it'll get there safely!

  1. I'm guessing there's one lucky little grandson somewhere in new Zealand who is going to love this! He must be four, my four year old grandson loves tractors too.

    1. He is 4. I suspect it's Oupa who likes tractors though!

  2. I hope he likes his tractor, and of course the towels, not an easy thing to wrap lets hope the postman does not use it to deliver the mail to him.
