Mailart 365 has moved

I was cleaning out my digital scraps collection, and ran across several that were sewing related, & thought I'd make a piece out of them. I like the result.

Memories of a love that lasted a lifetime.

A valentine using a vintage piece of embroidery for a background. Mim led me to the photos, which were perfect for this piece! Thanks, Mim!

33 of 365 by Boo Cartledge.  Peace, Bunnies, and Love.  I think I added additional stitching to this piece before it went into the mail to Lynn Alexander.

#32 of 365.  I love this 4 x 6 piece.  You've got your embroidery, your Ray Johnson memorial bunny, and then the amazing coincidence of the flower on which the bee stands matching the pink flower embroidered -- what? 30, 40, 50, 60 years ago?  I've been buying vintage embroidered pieces for 20 or 30 years, none of which are new because I prefer the worn ones...   One of my favorites, I sent this one to Lucy Pritchett.

This is being sent, amazingly enough, to a Wisconsin schoolteacher named 'Miss Kolb'!
