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 (!!)
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!
ReplyDeleteLove the sneak peak!!
