    Cuppy received her postcard and I told her I would post the pic for her. She's been on quite an adventure and hopefully she will share with the group when she has time. The card I sent her came from an idea I found on Pinterest and I thought it was cute and whimsical. I love birds, so this month was really fun for me![ATTACH=CONFIG]527649[/ATTACH]

    I also made one for a friend who's husband is recovering from surgery; she wasn't in the swap but I knew she'd enjoy it. [ATTACH=CONFIG]527650[/ATTACH]

    ...and since Calla didn't make the sign up deadline, we're doing a private swap. Calla, the handwork is done and I'll be mailing soon

    Dee, these are awesome. I'm so glad that you were able to hook up with Calla as well. This has been such a fun theme this month. I sure am enjoying ALL the birdies being posted!!

    Nan, September's Theme is In Honor of National Sewing Machine Day (Sept. 10), In the Sewing Room. However you want to interrupt that. Anything sewing related. I think it will be another interesting month in the Postcard Swap.

    Love those cards! And the birds each trying to get the worm was clever. Very cute!

    Hi everyone! (waving exuberantly),

    We've been very busy around here which means I've been pretty scarce on the board the last several days. I have spent the last hour catching up on posts to the different swaps I belong to and boy, have I missed a lot.

    About making fpc, what I've learned is, I have a lot to learn about making these little darl'ins. Yikes. Everyone has done beautiful work. Some I have already commented on to I'll just comment on the latest-

    Ctyankee-The American Robin from armylady2012 is cute! I totally love the edging.

    Judith1005-My, you are a prolific fpc maker. I feel like a sloth after seeing your achievements. The hummingbird pc you rec'vd is beautiful. Hummingbirds are my animal totem. No matter where I go, they seem to find me. I love to paper piece, it's slow going, but always end up with a great finish.

    Dee7683-What sweet fresh fpc you made. They are each adorable! And how thoughtful of you to make one for your friend. What do you have for an embroidery machine? I'm considering purchasing one.

    I received my fpc today from JuneBillie. And it's adorable As always, she puts her heart into her projects. I will post a pic tomorrow when the lighting is better. Side note- our card to each other has a common element other than a bird. I haven't heard that JuneBillie rec'vd hers yet. Hm... I posted the card before she posted hers, too. It will show up, if not, she knows I'll do right by her (we've been partnered before in other swaps).

    Best,
    deb in Maine
