Re-covering a lampshade

I've never recovered a lampshade before, but i convinced myself it could be done.
As i always seem to.






Bought some vintage lampshades on ebay and stripped them, image transferred some 1920's birthday postcards onto fabric and stitched it all together.
They were for a friends birthday and i left it last minute, my sewing machine decided to pack in so it ended up hand sewn and a bit rushed. At least i know its do-able, and she loved the sentiment behind the postcards!
