RIBBONS

I was feeling tired and uninspired until I read jettygirlx's post, which spurred me on to look in my ribbon box. Here it is - a glorious tangle. It reminds me that one of my favourite games as a small child was exploring my Mother's sewing box, which my Dad had made. It stood on four legs so that it would be just the height she would need when seated. The top hinged open and there was also a little drawer. It was full of delights such as pins, buttons, elastic and even ribbons. She was very indulgent and never minded that I pretended to tidy it, while making a glorious muddle.
