This is scary for me because the red line is where I am supposed to do dawn threads and I am afraid of making a mistake when I have to cut it. Right now I am doing bullion knots and spider web rose.

Working on 5 different projects in rotation since this past weekend.

:applesauce: what wonderful projects you are working on. I don't blame you for being scared about the drawn thread, though I'm sure you will do it just fine. Do you have some extra fabric to practice on? I am looking forward to seeing it finished. and the snowman and the leaves and starry night and the others too. Great starts on all.

They are all lovely and such a wide variety of subjects which should keep the interest - and the stitching - growing nicely.

Great work on all of them.

back of fabric postcard

I stitched this for my mother to cheer her up. She had an incident that made me laughed. She made herself some gluten free chocolate chip cookies. She loved it. She decided to make another batch for her friend next door. When she finished making the second batch, she was wondering why it tasted so different from her first batch. She checked the package and realized that instead of using gluten free flour mix, she had used instant mashed potatoes mix. She didn't have her eyeglasses on when she took the package out of the cupboard!!!!!!!!!!!!

Apparently, you can mail fabric postcards and mailart envelopes without a problem depending on where you live. I have to put my stitching projects into a bubbled envelope and send it as a parcel in Canada. I am looking for a window envelope to see if that would work. The people in the States and in Europe have better luck posting as it is. The problem is the machine that sorted the envelopes at the post office service. The days of hand stamped and delivered is long gone.
