My Fabric Postcard Challenge

I love to make tiny little art quilts. I have turned a whole deck of cards into tiny quilts as part of a challenge on the Quilt Art list. I sent my deck away and received a new deck of cards – each one was a little gem created by another fiber artist. This year I have decided to make fabric postcards to send in lieu of thank you notes, birthday cards and get well wishes. With Valentine’s Day looming, I think I have to get busy!! Here are three cards that I have completed so far.

This was for Steve’s birthday;

This was for my daughter Lisa‘s Birthday (she is very partial to bird imagery):

This was for my friend Diane‘s birthday:

When I mail the cards, I use a 37 cent stamp. Sometimes I ask for hand cancelling, other times I just drop them in the mailbox. So far they have all arrived at their destinations.

    These are very nice. I made some postcards today, and am looking at others for inspiration.

    So small and so much detail. What fun to send these through the mail and probably even more fun for those who receive them.
