Was out of town today and had a bill I wanted to mail so I found their post office which had the new style of mail boxes in their drive thru. The lady two cars in front of me got completely out of her car and stood pinched between the box and her car to squnch down and mail her letter. Then the lady in front of me did the same thing. What is the matter with these people, I thought. It turns out, design does matter. The box did not have the chute part that sits near the car, but it did have a new design feature to prevent anyone from reaching inside to steal mail. You can't reach the trap door from your car unless your arm is an extra 6" longer than most people's. But, now everyone, including yours truly has to pull up, put car in park, and get out, even in the rain to drop mail in the drive thru. Who thought this was a better idea?

Do you think about design convenience when making your sewn and embroidered items, like, is the neckline easy to put over the head, does this section need to be adjustable? Is this easy for a new mom to dress baby in? Etc. Design matters.
