Sit Quietly

“Sitting quietly, doing nothing, spring comes, and the grass grows by itself” (Zen Proverb)

Yep, it's 3 more postcards for the DIY Postcard Swap 2011.

And here's two I made for swaps on Trading Fabric Postcards:

The blackwork sheep pattern is from this website. Although I changed it a bit with my miscounting ;-) Not sure I have the patience/eyesight/concentration span for counted thread embroidery lol!

I think it's safe to say I've had enough postcard making for the time being. Time for something BIGGER!

  2. These postcards are great. I keep meaning to make something this size. I like the idea of a small project to try out different techniques.

  3. Your blackwork sheep is fabulous. I must try making a fabric postcard one day. That is a great proverb :)

  4. Awesome postcards - I love the chair ones, and I love that quote! I guess I should sit quietly and maybe spring will come? All my shouting at the skies hasn't done it, lol.
