More fiber-art birthday cards!

You may remember that my friend Liz Broussard sent me an early birthday card, in the form of a fiber-art postcard.  Well, I'm finally getting around to posting some more birthday fiber-art postcards, from more friends (members of my beloved FiberVoices group).  Since my studio is still in a jumble, a couple of them are from last year, but they are all absolute treasures to me.

"Blowing in the Wind", painted and stitched canvas,
by Connie Marie Fahrion

"Art of Friends" (our first round postcard)
by Cheryl Johnson

Mola Butterfly (multiple cut-away layers)
by Nancy B. Dickey

"Pine" (inked and stitched, with personal  signature chop)
by Susan Fletcher King

Surprise!  Not a postcard this time.  Mary Ann Littlejohn made these little soft folded-and-stitched
boxes for holding sewing notions or snipped thread ends.  We all started calling them
"Connie Catchers", since we will probably use them to save threads for Connie's signature
"thread trash" art-quilt creations.

My friend Liz Broussard sent me a beautiful fiber-art birthday card ... thank you, Miz Liz, I love it!

A Mother-in-Law Wish

My sweet mother-in-law, "Bill", has been like a second mother to me, and I just wanted to send a happy Mother's Day greeting to her also.

This is the picture that appeared in Katy Magazine a few months ago, on the occasion of her 100th Birthday. Can you believe it? Personally, I think she's been adding 20 years onto her supposed "birthdays" just so she can be the most beautiful 100-year-old!

Happy Mother's Day, Mrs. M!
