Fallen Leaves Postcard

Hi Everyone!!

Today I made another postcard.

This postcard is also for my Guilds postcard exchange.
I had to make two postcards this month, as this one is for a birthday.
At first I thought of having a cake on the postcard, but I was just not inspired by that.
So, I made a fall postcard.
I hope the recipient likes it.

I call it "Fallen Leaves".

I used silk fibers to make my design.
I'm really enjoying experimenting with these fibers on postcards.
Its a lot of fun!!

I hope you like it!!

Pegasus Post Card

Hi everyone,

I hope you are all safe tonight.
Hurricane Sandy is creating havoc on the east coast of North America.
Here the power has been flickering as the high winds blow through town.
It will continue to blow through tomorrow.
But, we are prepared with emergency rations and water.

Tonight I worked on a postcard for my Quilt Guilds postcard exchange group.
This months theme is Mystical Beasts.
I decided to make "Pegasus".

I first transferred the picture I chose using chalk.
Then, stitched the outline with white thread.
I then painted Pegasus white.
I then added some embellishment of silk fibers attached with free motion quilting.
I hope the recipient likes it.
