FINISHED

Last night I started the Postcard for Tessa from Popular Patchwork Forum. I have I am pleased to say, finished it. The theme was HOLIDAY, as I don't go away, I have done a picture of a place we went to on a day out. Mini holiday as it were!


We went to OLD HUNSTANTON, my GD had been there with the school on a day trip and she said how nice it was, soooo, we did likewise, and I fell in love with the place. I really need to win the lottery now, because, this is the Lighthouse there, it is right by the sea, and guess what?? It is for sale. A mere snip at £650,000.00
So this is what I decided to do for the swap.





And this, is my version of it. Hubby said I should have used Blue for the sky....actually, hubby dear, I used sky fabric, I did think I had guessed right for the position of the Light house, but it was not to be, bother, bother, bother. O well, a lesson learned. I just didn't want to use a solid blue. Hope you can see the Lighthouse!


Hope Tessa likes it.

Hiya Di, You just wouldn't believe it, but Tessa has done a light house too, how spooky is that? I wont be getting her card though, I have seen it, it is brilliant. These ladies said they hadn't done postcards before, hmm, methinks someone was telling porkies!!!! Not sure I should have posted this yet, hope Tessa doesn't come here before she gets her card. I will have to wait in future.
