Eyeball Finish!

I am frantically trying to finish writing my new lab manual, so I really haven't had much time for sewing. Luckily I did finish my LYoF goal for the month, the eyeball quilt! Original link-up post is over here.

I have also been knitting some postcards for Postcrossing. I have already sent one to someone in Hong Kong, thanks to Postcrossing. I came up with a basic tutorial if you want to make some yourself.

They DO make it through the mail, though you have to drop it off at the post office and pay a little extra because it can't go through the machines and needs to be sorted by hand ($0.70 for domestic, $1.35 for international). I sent one to my friend and she shared this photo with me after it arrived. Thanks, Toni!

  3. The iris is fantastic, and the quilting works very well, too, but I have to say...I'm not sure how I'd feel with that quilt "watching" me! :-)

  4. I read your beginning of the month post about this quilt, and thought about how you must feel so wonderful now that it's finally finished! You have learned so much over the years and were able to finish an amazing idea!
