Description:
What to do with all those little bits of fabric that are too pretty to throw away? Fabric notecards! Make 4 notecards, using a folded paper card base with fabric sewn or adhered to the front. Embellishment with buttons, ribbons, etc. is optional. Send 2, with envelopes, to two partners. The cards can be similar styles and colors or you can experiment with different types. Sender's choice as to fabrics, colors, and size. (Nothing smaller than 4x5, please.) Send on time. Rate promptly. Communicate if there are problems. Here are some tutorials for instruction and inspiration. If you have another tutorial that you want to use, feel free! Rainbow notecards Apple notecards Selvage notecards Fabric notecards Fast applique notecards Stamped & embellished fabric cards If there is enough interest, I will continue this as a monthly swap.

Can we also make our envelopes or should they be store bought?

Envelopes can be hand made or purchased. If you make them, be sure they are neatly done and fit the size of the card.

Definitely a craft I'll have to try out for future swaps (not enough time to practice before this one assigns).

Thanks for the links.

I will assign partners later today. I am waiting to hear back from a couple of participants.
