Fiber Art for a Cause

Tonight, I was really tired and even begged off going to the good-bye party the choir gave for Mr. C. I had an idea for a postcard and decided to give it a go. Fifteen minutes into my creative endeavor, I felt miraculously better!! I have made some other postcards over the past week or so when I have had a moment. Many are made with Mrs. Mel’s scraps that I acquired last year. These are all going to Virginia Spiegel’s Fiberart for a Cause and I need to have them there by the fifteenth. The moonlit trees were done tonight, and they are a takeoff on a photo the DebR posted last year.

READY FOR PROJECT RUNWAY?

Had to share this photo of my embellisher grandson, Miles. He stitched the skeleton at preschool and then stitched it to his shirt! I may have him quilting, soon.

    Cute! Okay that’s it- I’m giving my little 7 yr old Miles a sewing needle and let him go nuts with it :o)
    (my pet peeve:Not enough art in a lot of French schools, sigh…)

    I really like your post cards. Miles is one creative kid. I bet grandma was a big influence in his being interested in art.

    Nice job again as usual on the cards. Your post inspired me to take a try at a postcard. You can see the results over on my blog.
