I had finished the stitcheries for these a while back, so decided it was time to put the block together. It was pretty quick as I have already cut 1.5", 2.5" and 3.5" strips from each of my fabrics. It was just a matter of deciding which ones go where and cutting and sewing.
As you can see - a lot of personalisation in these blocks. I plan on just 9 blocks (18 stitcheries) and the Postcards will represent places we went on holidays as a family - not a lot so I can keep it small.

Hi Susan love your personalized blocks,and love your pretty fabrics,well done my friend xx
Your postcards look great, pre cutting is a good idea, seems to make things come together quicker, which is silly as you have to spend the time cutting earlier!!
Your version is so pretty Susan.
Always nice to see the end in sight too... xox
I like the way you personalized the blocks - great memories for you, and the arrangement of the blocks looks great! xx
