step 2


ok step 2 was to do the hand stitching. I highly recommend using floss that shows up better than the yellow I used in the middle. I haven't decided if I am ripping that out and trying something new there. Not real happy with the fern stitch done in blue either now that I look at it, lol. Also it is a good idea to baste the fabric down to the muslin backing or your stitches will pucker something terrible. That's what all the purple threads are. I think I will machine stitch the edges now before I add any beading or buttons. But here is step 2 of the post card.

The stitching really added to this postcard. I can't wait to see what else you add. Nice work!
