Swaps have started...

Some little trading cards are on their way to Australia. There are also cards on their way to Sweden and places in this country… I can’t stop making them, they’re just too much fun.

Here are a bunch of cards made by our group at our most recent meeting. Everyone had a very individual take on the cards – there’s even one with crochet (lower center) and one with bobbin lace (middle) – several were a collaborative effort. I was told emphatically by several friends that mine were very “over the top” – over-embellished, too decorated, maybe even too much – but I like them that way, though I had to promise on several I was working on to not add more… but I did add just a little more, where more seemed to be needed. Really. In the topmost photo, mine are the one with the tag (lower left, the crowded one in the center (but I really, really liked that one!) the purply one on the striped disk right below Dani’s red one, and the one in progress with the orange threads emerging from behind.

Here's a closer look at a few of them And of course I’m working on more, but I’m also working on Tatting Times…

And the wild haired garden maiden says…

"You’d better keep digging that garlic!" (there’s a lot more in the garden)
