"Letters Home"
This 5x7 crazy quilt piece displays fabric images of postcards from Paris.Thank you to Anita of My Country Cottage Garden blog who discovered the postcards on a trip to Paris, and was kind enough to send me these scans! I was so pleased and could hardly wait to incorporate them into a cq piece. I think it has a very soft romantic look to it.

ReplyDeleteI love also the colors and the whole idea.Anita is a lovely friend. Hey, your still inside doing crafts...when will you start gardening? We had a wonderful weather +21 C but it will be colder again. My tulips and daffodills are not blooming yet. How about yours?
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely piece. I love old postcards. Happy blog anniversary!
ReplyDeleteOK, I'm lost, how do you get from scanned postcard to the image being on cloth? Maybe you could give me a clue? It is a dreamy piece. Very nice.
ReplyDeleteI see I am back on the list. Tee hee. Pays to whine.
