a finished mixed media postcard. i made this one using a chunk of the hexagon pieced paper i was experimenting with. i've included a bit of vintage embroidered pillowcase edge, a fussy cut butterfly, a piece of vintage book page that i have sketched (watercoler pencils) a california poppy onto and some of my own embroidery work. this one is on it's way to my mom in celebration of her birthday.


and here's a sneak peek/teaser shot of the progress on the AAQI  pear quilt that i am working on.



today's gifts included:
  • spending some time with my daughter
  • brainstorming and gathering materials for an upcoming birthday quilt that i want to make
  • the arrival of my new needle felting machine (!!)

  1. That sneak peak really peaked my interest. I think I see some antique lace and yummy knobby thread embellishments. Keep me updated on when this goes to the auction...I covet it!

i love knowing what your thoughts are and knowing that you've paid a visit if you have the time to drop a line or two.

i attempt to answer all comments and/or questions. if this is important to you make sure you are not set on no reply which leaves me no way to get back to you.
