Post Card Swap

How cool is this? It is the post card I recieved from Kate of Trestle and Bunting. I was so thrilled when it came in the mail and it's big, 8 x 11. The entire thing is doodled then Kate colored in different sections with pencils. You can look at it for a long time and see lots of different things.

Here is a close up. Parts of the card are cut out and there is different kind of fabric behind it (see the green, that is fabric). Kate thank you so much I really love it. I think I might even frame it and hang it in my sewing room.

Tomorrow I will list the winner of my first give away for September. Go to this post for details.

Post Card Swap

I am participating in a postcard swap over at The Great Big Stitched Postcard Swap . I made mine yesterday because they are due in 2 weeks. The way time is flying I was afraid I would forget! The recipient of my postcard lives in England! I am not telling her name so it will be a surprise. I am anxious to see what my card will look like.

Post Card Swap

I am participating in a post card swap. The theme was "home" and this is what I came up with in about 15 minutes.

I just randomly cut out my objects and moved them around until I liked where they were. Next I fused and then sewed around them in black thread with my darning foot to give them an outline.

 A quick way to spark something like this is to have already fused fabric in a basket just waiting for you. I just picked up a fabric I like and cut it. No procrastinating just go for it.

You can find out more about the swap here http://aspecialjourneyofmyown.blogspot.com/p/great-big-stitched-postcard-swap.html

This is going to New Mexico!
