This has been such a brilliant swap and such great fun! Each month got more and more challenging as I'm not very good at portraying people in my cards and had to kind of think around the box. Birds and objects I am totally fine with, but as you can see on the tenth and eleventh days, things got a little tricky and I had to change my usual stitched felts.
The best part was seeing what others had come up with to interpret each line of the song. Some lines everyone seemed to take exactly the same idea from ie: hens with French berets on, or buckets to portray the milk maids. But all in all, they are just plain pretty!
