Always a relief to know that your swap has reached its destination. Sleepy Hollow said she would post pics tomorrow.

I received my postcard (and a couple extra Christmas/birthday goodies) from Betty J last night. I just love the postcard

Posting the pictures without the cellophane to show them a little clearer. Hope you don't mind.

Your machine embroidery is stunning! The spokes on the bike. Betty you are fabulous. That looks like a Tiffany box in the basket.

Betty J sent me a cute piece of "Happy Birthday" fabric with my postcard. Just wanted to share how I used it...

My Dad always says "It's not a birthday cake unless it's chocolate", so I used it to make a Happy Birthday Chocolate Cake block. It's my first time paper piecing I may go back and use a different cut of fabric for the top, so that the "happy birthday"s are vertical instead of sideways, but I'm pretty happy about how it turned out.

The bottom will look more like a plate once the seam allowance doesn't show. I might try to hand embroider a candle on top as well.
