This will be a place where I will share what I do with fiber scraps & other found objects, & turn them into fiber art postcards. It is also a companion blog to my Yahoo postcard group. I hope you enjoy the pics!

January Mystery Postcard
This is the quilted postcard I made for the groups Jan. Mystery game. I was given the theme of "stained glass windows", & it was my 1st attempt at using thin fusible bias tape. What a pain BTW!
Question? Do you use batting or Timtex in the middle of the quilted post cards. I have read about both. I made 2 for my girls for Valentines Day and I think they turned out ok. Just wondering.
Hi Kim, I use peltex that I can buy locally. I haven't tried Timtex yet, & have only seen it on the net. I have used batting in combination w/the peltex on some of my cards to achieve a more contoured effect for the card, but that was a personal choice. Send me a pic of the cards you made, I would love to see them!
