For The Daylesford Craft Experience, which I am attending on Sunday, we were sent a postcard to embellish with some stitching. We were asked to stitch a message, saying, or something about ourselves, and who we are.
Of course I have one defining habit, so I shared that ;-). The postcards are going to be swapped on the day. You can see Melly’s one here and Jodie’s one here (they are both teaching at the event). Clearly (pun intended) the variegated thread I chose is not that good for readability, but I enjoyed using it.
Now I just have to be strong on Saturday as we tour the region’s patchwork shops. “I do not need any more fabric”….”I do not need any more fabric”……I do not need any more fabric”……..
You see it has been an expensive week, as I have been to the dentist and optometrist with the kids. Amelia has just had new lenses fitted. Rory will need glasses in the very near future, and braces on his teeth in a few more years time – definitely. Michaela (at 4 1/2 years) is the only one in the family with perfect vision, so far. Sigh. There are worse problems to inherit from your parents.
Glasses and braces… that’s why God invented Extras cover…
Love the postcard! I’ve been putting off going to the optician too as I’m sure I will need new glasses! Life is so expensive!
Have a fab weekend!
Hmmm… glasses and teeth are definitely not as much fun as fabric – but your girl looks vey sweet in her specs.
