I am covering a number of things in this post.
First of all
I have joined Yiota, in Greece
in choosing some inspiring words,
for
'Inspiring Words Week'.
Secondly I have finished my third postcard
for
Kelly is from the United States.
The theme for March is
'Words to live by'.
My word for today is
Friendship.
You can see it on my postcard,
along with;
love,
health,
faith,
wisdom.
I added in large appliqued letters
Family.
I hand quilted;
create,
learn,
cherish.
To me,
all words to live by.
I thought it would be an easy postcard to do.
I had a clear idea in my mind
as to how it should look.
But I was not pleased with how it turned out.
So I started again
with the postcard that you see here.
It is okay,
but not really how I envisioned it.
However, I will leave it at that,
for now.
I practiced my machine quilting again,
but I'm not sure you can see the little quilted hearts.
So, friendship!
A parcel arrived for me yesterday,
all the way from Australia.
All the way from Robyn at Daisy Quilts,
Robyn who is the chief administrator
for the Hexagon Quilt Along blog I belong to.
To celebrate the first anniversary of the Quilt Along blog
Robyn organised a giveaway,
which I won!
And this is what I won!
A lovely book
containing plenty of inspiration
for some new projects.
Which I will no doubt share with you,
once I have made some of them!
Then there's this little felt brooch
sent to me by Alison from England,
along with some other goodies
some time ago now,
and I don't think I mentioned it at the time.
I wear it on my woolly hat all the time at the moment.
Then we have two of our boys.
Rufus and Arthur.
Brothers.
They've been apart for the last couple of years,
but they seem to remember each other
now that they are back together.
Brotherly friendship!
So many ways to experience friendship.
And I love the way that the internet
shares friendship
around the globe.
