Then, to my little ones....specifically Audrey, I sent two books this week. The first one contained the book, "Eloise's Pirate Adventure", and the second, "A-Z Mystery - "The Missing Mummy".
Sorry about the quality of that last picture. My camera is on the "fritz" and in for repair so I had to resort to my old one for now. Here is another picture taken with that one. This envelope went to my granddaughter. I enclosed some stickers I bought at Target:
Then..........IF you can believe..........I sewed this week. My QT swap quilt (8 x 10 1/2 inches) was delivered to my partner, but before that, my visiting niece saw it while here and flipped over it and asked if I'd make a bigger one for her little 11 month old since his room is done in fishes. So the first one is the little one and the 2nd a bigger copy at 14x18 inches.
So, there you have it! My week (or a partial week as it goes) in a nutshell.....or rather an envelope! lol Today I am organizing my brain for our family pool party this weekend. Too bad our weather will go from the 90's to low 70's by Sunday. Hopefully, I'll still have some swimmers. The water (at 90 degrees) will be warmer than the air.
Hope you are enjoying your summer too! Until next time...........
As always, your talent and whimsy just astounds me!

Your envelope art is such a JOY! I love the whimsy of your drawings. Great fishy quilts with lots of underwater details. Undersea Adventures...
ReplyDeleteYou have such a great talent for details! Especially in your little quilties. I love both those water backgrounds, by the way. I'm am so thankful for the many many smiles you send to me in the mail! Thank you so much!
ReplyDeleteLove the Fishes quilts. One of my Dil's maiden name is Fish.

The artsy envelopes are all fantastic! The fish quilts are great! I love them all and you can see the pure joy that you put into each piece. Well done.
ReplyDeleteThe little quilts are just adorable! Love the fish and the way you used different fabrics/motifs to create the coral reef. You should submit some of your envelope work to a greeting card company. You have so many talents, Carol.
