Fabric Postcard Swap 2018: from Tiffany

Recently, I participated in a fabric postcard swap over at: Elm St. Quilts Blog. Here is the one that Tiffany sent to me. The clue was "green", and she has hit that right on point. So cute and well-made. Tiffany does not have a blog, but she is on Instagram. Since I am not, I cannot comment on Instagram, but have emailed her with thanks. Sending many thanks to Patty also for hosting this fun event. The first week of April, there will be a link party parade of all of the postcards. Be sure to stay tuned to Elm St. Quilts Blog for that event. Tagging this post: #esqpostcardswap . Prim blessings.

Fabric Postcard Swap 2018

Recently I participated in a fabric postcard swap hosted by Patty at: Elm Street Quilts Blog. This was a new venture for me, making a postcard of fabric. How fun and cool is that? Pictured here is the one I made for my swap partner. Our recipients are a secret until the Swap is over. The clue for mine was "Spring", so one flower came to mind: a tulip. The back has a mock stamp and postage marks made with ink and two rubber stamps. 'Adding a message to the recipient before mailing. This swap was a lot of fun + educational. 'Will share the fabric postcard that I received as soon as it arrives. Please continue reading for comments.

~Thrifty Thursday: postcards and notions~

Sharing some more Thrifty Thursday finds. Our town has a general store, and they really have some nice items. While in there, I found these pretty postcards for just .50¢ each. 'Had to snag a couple of them! On the way out of the store was a basket full of sewing notions. Irresistible, so the rick-rack was just .25¢ per pack. Total spent: $1.75 on this visit. Are there any old-timey general stores in your town?
