POSTCARD MANIA - THAT's ME

You will notice I have changed my Blog colour - yet again - this feels warmer. I noticed too that this is Number 1006 posting for me. Gosh!

**************************************

I just cannot help myself. I have to make Postcards. I used all the Gingko leaves I cut out the other week, set up the machine and enjoyed myself stitching them with sparkly threads. No comments from me, you can see what they are.....hopefully!


the purple background one below is not finished yet...
 Using scraps...
 Don't you wish you were here instead of with the snow????
 Playing with quilting...
 Made on my Embellisher machine for fun - a bit thick though...
 First go at using the chenille cutter from Caz -
again very thick...
 **************************************
My wonderful sparkly Christmas card all the way from Monika in Bavaria,
thank you Monika I love it...

OH GOOD GRIEF

I found these little bits in a bbox when I was looking for something. Anyone want one? Let me know.




  ******************************************************
I then decided to pull out a few UFOs to take pictures of for the
Popular Patchwork Forum UFO CLUB,
Katy is running it next year, I am having a rest.
From just two boxes I pulled this lot out.
Rebecca started holding them then I took over when her poor arms got tired.
HOW MANY...just two boxes!!

Liberty Log Cabin
 Trying to remember this one, I think it was blocks made for me...
 Ahhhh. Baby Dinos...

 I designed this for Makower...

Ah, this one I made when I liked white as a background...

I am hoping to finish one UFO per month - or more - next year. These have been waiting to be finished for way too long now. I want them done and out of the way. As I finish them I will put the info and year on them. Too lazy to find the it right now.
