A couple cards arrived in the mail
This one is from Debbie, I think she had my name in July -- she says the yo yo is the hot florida sun. Thanks Deb.
And this one from Mom. Delecate flower embroidery with butterflies. Both cards definitely say *summer*.

August
I wanted to make some Yo Yo's and try out a design I'd seen in a magazine so I'm already done with my August card....and no, I didn't follow the theme for the month.

My cards
I went off theme in June and sent this one to Ann. I hand carried Mom her July card too so I'm all caught up.
I love Nancy's and Deb's vacation postcards and I actually took a photo of the beach when I was in FL thinking I might get around to making a vacation themed card eventually, we'll see.

Postcards for July
I wanted to get my July card done before leaving on Friday -- not sure I'm all that happy with either one of these but I guess I'm just going to like some more than others. I won't tell you which one I'm bringing to you Mom since I have your name for July - you'll just have to wait and see!

Two cards in the mail today!
The first from Mary Ann for May -- it's fun seeing all the intepretations of *hobby* and I guess it's no surprise that for most of us it's quilting.
I also received this card from Mom. I love both of them, Thanks!

Just in case you're running out of ideas - one of my friends on a longarm quilting group put together a bunch of links just on postcards. Clicking on the link below will take you to a page with a lot of other links to explore.

A simple version
I don't have another sewing machine but I couldn't resist making another version for this month's challenge...wonder where it will end up?

My May card
Mom and I found the sewing machines and measuring tape last week at Joann's and when she posted her card I thought it was SO cute and hoped mine would look as good.
I don't like applique so I didn't want to stitch those letters down but had the bright idea to hand sew a running stitch down them with perle cotton. The idea to use buttons came last night while I was trying to sleep. I'm happy with this one!
