Sailing

Here's a little fabric postcard I finished up today. You might recognize the background fabric - it's what I trimmed from the giveaway postcards in this post. I really can't throw anything away. I had a sketch of sailboats from my visit to the area before moving here - amazingly one of the boats was the exact size I needed. Chalk this up as one more piece of unfinished business completed.

It will be months before the boats will be back on the lake, but one can dream. Snow is still covering the ground and stacked high around buildings, ice still hugs the edge of the lake. However, the sun is gaining strength. I ate my lunch sitting on the sun-drenched porch this afternoon, with no need of a coat. Could spring be far off?
