Fabric & fibre postcards: Day 13

Fabric & fibre postcards, originally uploaded by curli.

Hand quilting:
Until this beauty arrived in today's mail I hadn't thought of hand quilting a card;
Most peculiar as hand stitching is my preferred option most times!

White on white,I think it's a heron in a small pond:Connie has not confirmed that,but the bird looks very similar to the grey herons and egrets that hang out around our paddocks.

Another thing that amazed me,was that this white on white work arrived here unblemished and without a protective cover.
How good is that!
I'm also glad the card arrived today,rather than yesterday when 50mm of rain bucketted down and sprayed into our letterbox.


Thanks for the card,ConnieT
