This weekend turned into more of a weekend of chores. I did some hand applique while I watched football yesterday but I mostly continued my efforts to get the inventory from the AQS show put away. I think I'm about halfway done at this point. There are only 3 big bins left in the middle of the living room floor. Believe me, that's progress! I did take a couple of sewing breaks and made some progress on postcards. I didn't love my last iteration of the tree cards so I pulled out some dyed cheesecloth and metallic mesh ribbon and gave my trees some background. Then I hand stitched sequins and an bead for a star. I'm happy with this one. Now they are all ready for their backs and edges. I also figured out a new direction for the cat postcards. Estelle had this cat stencil that's going to work perfect. In my stamping supplies I also found these little cat paws. My plan is to get these done this evening.

I really love the way your tree cards are coming together. I am almost (almost I said) inspired to do Christmas cards.

Tree cards are coming together and looking good. Am definitely intrigued to see what you're doing next with the cats! Comments are closed.
