Talking about postcards I have received two recently both were a surprise to me , first off was this quite unique card all the way from New Zealand . Max who happens to be Raewyn's nephew has developed a love for making postcards and he recently was visiting with Raewyn and they made some more cards and I was the lucky recipient of a card which he made totally by hand .
Gilbert , a name brand in his area and one I was not familiar with but he obviously loves this brand and also sports , thanks so much Max that was so sweet of you . I have mailed off a Christmas postcard to Max as a thank you .
A little snowman , I don't think it has arrived just yet but I thought I would share it as I am quite sure he doesn't read my blog ;-)
I also received a beautiful postcard from my friend Annette , it was really nice surprise .
Isn't it beautiful , thanks so much Annette :-) I love it !!
I have been super busy lately but as I am sure you will understand some of what I have been doing can't be shared just now , they are for gifts . However I can share this BOM I have done for Buttermilk Basin , these have been such fun to do each month and she is giving us one more ,yeah .
I did decorate a multitude of tea towels lately and sorry for the horrid picture but it is the only one I have .
I also made a pillowcase for my grandson who loves Star Wars .
I think he will like it , or I hope he does .
One more little wool work to share , another project from Buttermilk Basin .
A cute little snowman stocking . thanks Stacy .
So folks that is all from me today, thanks so much for taking the time to stop by . Have a great day .
hug Sheila
Sheila, I love your tea towels! You do such a nice job on them. Raewyns nephew is a cutie! She posted about him and his postcard making in the very recent past. She sure is proud of him and for good reason. Keep up all the good, festive work. I hope we don't get any snow until after I leave!! XO
ReplyDeleteLove those tea towels. Fabulous postcards. Love your projects. Hugs,xx
ReplyDeleteLove the postcards. You must have quite a collection by now. I've mailed my card, and I recently received my fall card from Brazil. oops - I just posted on my blog and forgot to share. Must go edit. A local friend of mine wants to start making postcards, so I took my collection over for her to see. Another convert.
ReplyDeleteSuch cute postcards! And many other lovely Christmasy things. I wish I could just spend the next couple of weeks working on Christmas projects.... but no such luck. We had a lovely time in NB and NS with great weather. It has been much more wintery during our last week and a half in Nfld.
ReplyDeleteLove the postcards Sheila! In case you weren't aware, 'Gilbert' is the brand name of the rugby balls that were used in the rugby World cup held here in England recently. New Zealand won the World cup which is why your little friend is probably so interested in it. The shape he has drawn is a rugby ball and if you look at the fabric background the teams are playing rugby.... he is obviously a fan!! Love your beautiful tea towels.... all so beautiful! Have a lovely weekend! Christine x
ReplyDeleteMax's postcard is lovely and thanks Christine for explaining what it meant...cute postcard you sent to Max and I do love Annette's.
ReplyDeletePosted my postcard a few weeks ago to my partner . Sew far have not received mine.
The tea towels are gorgeous as is the wee snowman stocking.
Love all your tea towels. How sweet to get a postcard from Max. Your snowman postcard is super cute. The postcard I sent was received in Australia and mine is on its way. Another one for my growing collection. We haven't had any snow yet, and that's fine with me.
ReplyDeleteLove those tea towels Sheila , you sure have been busy. Cute little snowman I am sure it will love it's new home.
