Paying it Forward Contest Loot
Aren’t these absolutely gorgeous? It makes me want to learn how to knit.
Remember the Pay It Forward comment contest? Well, a package arrived for me with what I won from Knitting Passion.
Really, this picture does not begin to cover how wonderful and gorgeous these are. Even my husband said, “Those are way too nice to just use as cloths. Maybe we can piece them together for a quilt or something.”
It would be a super small quilt, but you know it’s quality when Mr. JM is impressed.
Now, I haven’t forgotten about my promise. No one commented about any interest for blank embossed cards, but I really don’t know what else I can make that won’t take heaps (and heaps) of time and/or won’t incur massive shipping charges. So I do hope someone out there is interested. I’ll make a couple and put pictures up.
I went shopping yesterday and bought three different types of envelopes (fancy pink, fancy blue, plain blue) to go with the cards. If you win, you’ll have your choice of envelope. I can probably even give you a mix, if you prefer.
Three lots of five is what I’m planning on because that will take me long enough as it is. I don’t have a light table, so that makes the process quite a bit slower. Hm. I could do some stamp/watercolour ones too, as a bonus. Maybe I’ll just have a card-making day and give you your choice of them.
As you can see, I’m still in the planning stages, so if you have any suggestions, please let me know.
