'Tis like the birthday of the world,
When earth was born in bloom;
The light is made of many dyes,
The air is all perfume:
There's crimson buds, and white and blue,
The very rainbow showers
Have turned to blossoms where they fell,
And sown the earth with flowers.
- Thomas Hood

Your first kit for the current month will be sent right away and all subsequent kits will be sent by the second week of each month. Because these kits are seasonal,we will send you the February kit in January so you have time to sew and complete the kit for the next month.

Seven different wire hangers will be sent over the course of the year to correlate with the banners. (see Hangers Included photo)
