    Thank you for the lot of felt. It will really help in my projects not having to search for the felt here and there and having large pieces to work with. The box was great you sent the lot in. Everything is just as shown. I would absolutely purchase from again. Thank you very much.

    The package arrived at a reasonable amount of time, USPS Media Mail. The book was cocooned in bubble wrap inside a sturdy box. The book is as described on the listing. A definite excellent value! I will definitely purchase from this seller again!
