It's not yet midsummer, but this month's theme for the June Phatfiber box has arrived right in the middle of some mid-summerly heat and humidity.
Before I get into the glories of the box, however, here's a picture of a visitor to our carport this afternoon. I don't know why it was in the middle of our carport instead of wandering amongst the trees.
It looks like a luna moth caterpillar to me. I put it in the ground cover out of the way and hopefully it's made its way safely to wherever it was going.
Now, on to the box! Lots of beautiful and large! samples this month.
This was the great "program" Jessie sent in the box to hold the cards and such.
Pictures of the box contents and shop links after the jump.
In no particular order, A Midsummer Night's Dream Phatfiber style!
