Fabric Postcards

These are the first postcard I have made. They will be given as gifts so the backs are not a light color and do not follow the USPS mail rules.

I have fun making these and have 10 more with very different designs that I am hand quilting.

I have a question about beads with small holes. What do you use to sew them with? What kind of needle and number of strands of floss or thread?

Have A Great Evening!

Dye-na-Flow Dyes and New Wall Quilt

Thank-you to every one who answered my question about yesterdays piece of silk I dyed. I asked what the piece looked like to you. The reason why I asked is because I love hearing what it is you see. I got many different responses.

These are cotton muslin scraps I used to absorb the extra dyes. I have heat set the dye but have not washed the fabric in the machine. I am sure some of the dye will wash out.

Washed and dried Valentine fabrics from my stash that is waiting to be ironed. I will be using this fabric for postcards and small wall quilts.

This will be 16 X 16 when finished. Last week I purchased more floss and beads and I will be using for embellishments on this wall quilt and others.
Have A Great Day!

Goodies From JoAnn's Today

Here are my goodies from JoAnn's today. Yellow/Orange Beads, Green/Blue Beads, Red Beads and floss. I still have more stuff I want to get but I am on a very limited budget. I also had to buy printer cartridges for my HP and Epson printers ($150.00). Last month I got no name brands and the printers rejected the cartridges. Oh well I should of known better!!!
