A Postcard a Day~Knitted Wonder #6

Okay, I know it seems like I'm a day behind...

I'm looking at it another way - as being a day ahead, if I don't create any over the weekend! My son and I needed a day together, so on Saturday, we hung out and got terribly goofy. This included changing the message on our answering machine, so now we have people calling and then hanging up, just so they can hear what we did! I also introduced him to some Blake Edwards' movies...

Anyway, back to the postcard. The background is gold dupioni, the green strip is a narrow piece of fun foam that is satin-stitched, and the red tear drop is an earring - we have a thrift shop at our church, and there's a box of odds and ends-everything is 10 cents. I have yet to run across anything that I would actually wear in this box, but the earrings are fun found items! Posted by Picasa

Wow, I love the idea of using knitting as a part of an art quilt. I'll have to try that. What a concept. Thanks so much for sharing.

I'm loving these knitted wonder postcards. What a fun way to MAKE yourself work and the results are beautiful. Lots of texture and vibrant color!
