Quilt Cards
I've been dipping my toe in the quilting waters lately. I bought the new book, Denyse Schmidt Quilts, and these cards are the result of my first efforts. They are fun, fast, and easy - in other words, my kind of project! The floral images in the corners are copies from the book Funny Town that I posted about here, the rest is fabric.
Do you recognize the fabric? I told you I love it ;)
Something a little different here. I've been building a stash of Japanese inspired fabrics for a project I have in mind so I used a few of them for this card. The vase is cut from a Japanese newspaper. I'm participating in the Denyse Schmidt Quilt Along so go check out what others are doing too!
the designs were very unique.the one that was called as a card doesn't look so...i didnt expected that it was a card..

I was enamored with all your textiles, where do you find all your materials?

one more thing: how do you get the words? The possibilities are endless if they can be so personalized.

Oh, very nice! I like them all, but especially the blue flower and vase. I love receiving these in the mail...you just know they have been admired at each post office where they've been sorted.

Oh! Beautiful cards...I really like how these look. What a great way to use up all the left-over scraps. I'm thinking this might have possibilities as a kid project too...maybe with a little hand-sewing instead. I'll have to check out that book!
