Very cute fried egg postcard. We hit 118 (again) yesterday, so it was egg frying time in Arizona!

I love the taking the pants for a walk!! Such creative postcards!

Some of the women I quilt with will be at this show as well! Hope you have a great time!

Great postcards so far :)

I've made touch with my partner, but haven't started the card yet. I'll get to work on it next week when I'm on night shifts...

Thought about both of these holidays, but lacked your creativeness (and the pants fabric!!) Great sidewalk. Certainly did not have to explain.

Glad you like it j50. I got yours today. Great flag!! Thanks. Sadly, the board won't let me do attachments. Posting a picture is not going to happen. :(

Love the pants fabric!! Great pc.

I have photos and my computer is sort of working.[ATTACH=CONFIG]576098[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]576099[/ATTACH]

I received my postcard from Cuppy on Saturday! Sorry for the late posting, I've been under the weather with the crud. Anyway, without further ado, here's my beautiful postcard!! See, there is even a cute flag charm on the card! It's for the 4th of July! Mine is going out today if I happen to catch the mailman.

Lovngrandma I am so happy that you liked the post card, the backing was something that I had found some time ago I believe that was the last one but if you have an embroidery machine you could create one every easily. I hope that you had a wonderful Holiday. Can't wait to see what you have created for me.

Bet you didn't know July 17 is Yellow Pig Day! SheriR created this wonderful whimsical postcard for me to celebrate. The pig's tummy is a 3D yellow flower. It's a keeper. So creative. Thank you.

the flag postcards are wonderful. love all the patriotic fabrics!

@cookiezenmilk - so glad you like your PC! I had fun with this one.

I received today a BEAUTIFUL WOOL patriotic card from nhnative. She knows what I'm in love with right now!!

Wow! Love all the variations on the flag postcards, and the yellow pig is hilarious!

Sent my card today to KRoll. Hope you get it before you leave for vacation.
Beautiful Flags

Sending yours out today, tg, hooray I finished it before my trip.
Just packing up some blocks & it's off to the P.O.
Bet I'll get yours, not leaving til Fri night.

The post office race is on - will a post card travel faster from NY to CA - or CA to NY?

oh i love the wool flag postcard. that is wonderful.

travelingramma, I will post as soon as I get it, they'll be crossing the country and so will I. BUT - I forgot to take a pic of mine...:eek: so I hope you can take a pic for me & post it.

Seeing all these beautiful cards - flags - pants - egg frying - yellow pig - reminds me I was going to pick a different day than I did - and then forgot my plan - I won't say more but my day's already been covered.

Sending you cool thoughts, Miz Melly. 118!

I finally got a little inspiration for this month, so I plan to make the card tomorrow night (or tonight, if I finish the quilting a charity quilt early enough). That would mean it would hit the mail on Friday or Monday!

I love all the variations of the same holidays (like the flag). It's really fun to see how everyone can take the same "theme" and makes it their own.

Such creative post cards, I am still a bit original......

I am speechless - this card from Kroll is over the top. those pants flew across the country and I have been showing them off to everyone around. Thank you so very much. Hope you are enjoying your trip.

Kroll you are such a creative artist!

that pants card is awesome!!!!

TravelingGramma what a creative card you received from K-Roll she loves to think outside the Box. K-Roll awesome job.

I received fabric post card from Miz Melly Thread the Needle Day!! Thank you . Another Sew Creative!

Here's a pic of the postcard I sent to Cuppy

Cuppy that is a beautiful card you received from MizMelly. MizMelly wonderful Paper piecing wished I could do it, tried and was a major fail.

I'm impressed what everyone can do on just a 4 x 6 inch space!

My card to lena was put in the mail yesterday.

Did everyone notice new signups for August are up?

Travelinggramma I'm glad you liked the card...the middle pair's fabric is what I used to make a pair of pants for myself last month.
I did not get your card before I left :( &
I will not be home til the 28th - do you want to post it now?
Miz Melly your card could be an illustration for a book on kimono sewing, that's what it reminds me of - very beautiful work!

Went swimming at Rockaway Beach...god bless the gulf stream, the Atlantic is so much warmer than the Pacific.

Or, tg, I will post it when I get back of course... I'm simply eager to see it!

Kroll..you will just have to wait. I will tell u that it us a repeat of another holiday posted already! !

oh wow Miz Melly, that needle pulling thread card is awesome, wow.

I just love paper piecing, so I try to look at holidays that I can translate into paper pieced blocks. I have ideas for August already!!

i've always struggled with paper piecing. love the look and the accuracy but it boggles my mind.

My partner and I have both received our postcards.

I sent this one to Lena1952 for Hammock Day (I used a scrap of batting for the leg)

I received this pretty Different Colored Eyes Day postcard from Lena1952

While reorganizing the house (so much reorganizing!) I found the little mini easels I bought on a vacation (for about $2 each). So I'm going to start displaying a few on my piano and then move them to a different display setup I'll make for my eventual sewing room (probably hang on a wire/twine with mini clothes pins).

The little easels make me think of little works of art, which they are!

They have some of the mini easels on amazon, but they might be cheaper at a local art store. I have a slightly larger one that one of the guys in my photography club made, they are fun :)

[ATTACH=CONFIG]577550[/ATTACH]

(Ignore the dust *sigh*. I had to move the easels into the light so I could photograph them.)

sleepy hollow - love your work of art display and the hammock is awesome .( liked the holiday but my mind was relaxing too much as I was thinking of swinging in one!!) I have seen those easels in Michaels also. I have been hanging mine (and even put pictures of ones I sent) into the plastic envelopes and temporarily taped to my "sewing area"
