MAGPIE'S MUMBLINGS

A blog about my interests, which include fabric landscapes and various and assorted other artsy pursuits and sometimes known to contain mumblings of a random nature.

As our mothers said....

....waste not, want not.  And in that vein, you might remember my latest barn project and how I wasn't pleased with the grass area that I had originally created.  So....I lobbed it off!  Then I was left with the  part I got rid of.


So.....I made it into postcards!





Today your quote is from an anonymous source...."Surround yourself with people you love being yourself with"

  3. You are the Queen of "Waste not, want not"! As I recall, you were the one who gave me the idea to use an old denim quilt UFO as kennel quilts. So I'm not surprised that your resourceful self found a use for the "grass clippings"!!

  5. The postcards are a Win-Win-Win! I especially love the left and lower ones because now they look like underwater-scapes to me - magic! :)
