Christmas cards

Now that I have sent out our Christmas cards, it's OK to post these pictures. I didn't want any of the recipients to get an early glimpse:)This year I chose to do fabric postcards.



A variety of fabrics were purchased as I didn't want to get bored. Yes, I started in August since it's not nice to see me stressed by a close deadline.



Each of the approximately 60 cards was quilted. After the backing was added, I zigzagged the edge. Fabric markers were used for the addressing and a short message. My one concession to the post office was to add 1st class regular envelope postage. So far, they seem to have made it to their destinations!
