    Default Birthday Wallhangings

    My friends from where I worked before retirement get together each week for breakfast and lots of coffee. I wanted to make them a "special" card and decided to do small wallhangings for their cards, each having something to do with them. I have done paper-pieced coffee cups with the center reflecting something about them. One has a picture of a Gardner which my friend Linda is my favorite gardening buddy and the 2nd whose birthday is this month is a member of the Greek Orthodox church and the praying hands reminded me of Cathy. Thank you for looking.
