I had a surprise before we left - a flower delivery - a present for my birthday from Keith. I think I confused everyone with a previous post - I'm feeling sorry for myself in advance - my birthday is Monday and that's when he'll be gone.
Finally, I tried some ribbon embroidery tonight for the first time. I'm still fascinated with crazy quilting although I'm only reading about it right now. I decided that I could practice some embroidery on postcards until I had time to start a crazy quilt project. Hopefully I'll improve with some practice!

Looks great! I like crazy patchwork, ut have never done any yet.
And to think I nearly wished you a belated birthday LOL. You will have a good one, I'm sure!
Mary happy birthday!
The sunset is beautiful, and the flowers are very pretty. I hope that you keep to your plan to treat yourself tomorrow. The quilting store and lunch sound like a nice birthday plan. I have never done ribbon embroidery, but yours looks great. The flower almost looks real. Have a happy birthday.
The ribbon work is beautiful! Can't wait to see more. I don't know much about crazy quilts, obviously they used that on them right? LOL, showing my lack of knowledge!! The flowers are beautiful too!
LOVE the postcard, Mary! Well done. I love it when I see someone using a very age old technique in a new, contemporary twist. It's lovely!
You have a wonerful day tomorrow! I'll be thinking of you!!! So really...you're not "alone!" Make it good! ;-)
Happy, Happy Monday Birthday, Mary. Hope your day goes extra fine!
