Catch Up

It's been one of those weeks this week. By the time I've got to the end of the day, I have felt so tired, I just didn't feel up to writing the blog. I did manage to do a bit of stitching though.

Tuesday I began stitching to the right of the roof and chimney. And did a bit more Wednesday, but yesterday I decided to have a bit of a break. I needed something to stitch that I didn't need to work too hard concentrating on.

I began another fabric postcard. I hand quilted the centre section using gold thread.
After stitching the seams on the main body of the postcard, I hand appliqued the quilted square using blanket stitch.
I then added the leaf button before stitching the front and back of the postcard together.

I haven't decided on the destination of this card yet. It will either be Australia of America. I have the other postcard all prepared and ready for stitching.

I am now going to go back and do some more cross stitch. The break from cross stitching has been brief, but refreshing.
