Over the weekend, a lovely postcard from Anya came in the mail. It made my day. The eye candy of a card popped out and made me happy. The little note made an extra skip in my heart. It was a thank-you note for the yarn given away on my First Anniversary Giveaway. It said:
“Thank you so much! I gave it to a friend who said she would knit me a pair of socks. I made her promise to make something for herself, too.
Thanks again!”
Anya does not knit; she quilts awesome, adorable quilts. But she knows a good material when she sees one. That DyeLots yarn was one heck of a lovely fiber to knit.
Here’s what the card looks like. What’s great about it is…it’s actually a piece of quilt with stiffed white backing. (Is that a correct quilt-speak, Anya?) A brilliant idea for a postcard!
Your quilt speak is close enough…
Glad you liked the postcard..I had great fun making it. Just a little something to say thank you for your generosity…I’ll be sure to post a photo of the creation(s) from my knitting friend.
P.S. I don’t know if you noticed (it’s hard to tell under the gold zigzag stitching), but I used some of the yarn along the seams…
Oh yeah! Now I noticed! Really clever! Such professional finish!
