Still Stitchin'!

 It's been a long time since the last post, but not much has changed. We are all still 'gated' and confined, and it doesn't look likely that we'll be meeting soon. The Facebook page was quiet for a while, I think everyone is just so scunnered and deflated with it all. So Debbie and I set up an Artist Trading Card swap, and below are pics of the creations. For those of you unfamiliar with the concept, they are either credit card size or postcard size pieces of works, usually with a theme and a deadline, and we have a recipient to swap with. Just using what we already have, no need to purchase anything except a stamp to post it, and a bit of fun. We chose the theme 'Ocean', and it has got us out of our ruts and stitching again. It's really a pleasure to get such a delightful surprise in the post.

Everyone has enjoyed making these little creations, and we may well have another one soon. If you would like to take part let Debbie or myself know, it doesn't matter if you are not on Facebook, I can post the info on here, and we'll make sure you get to know about it all. 

Ouch, Blogger has changed it's settings and removed the facility to name each picture, so until I work it out, the pics are (in order)
