Textile Postcard Project Week # 28

April 8th - 14th 2018

I am really enjoying the making and posting process of my postcard series. There are, naturally, some cards that I like better than others and I am sure you, the follower, will feel the same way.
 I really like the card that I have made for this week. The fabric I began with was a pre-loved cream woollen blanket. Some years ago I dyed this old blanket with blue procian dye and these are left over scraps which I have embroidered with hand dyed cotton thread. The ball of thread was dipped in both a pot of yellow and then a pot of blue dye.
