Four More Fabric Postcards

Toward the end of August and first of September, I seem to have gotten into a fabric postcard groove.

This “Iris in a Vase” is my 6th postcard.  It was made by fussy cutting the flower and leaves, then appliquéing them onto the background fabric before adding the vase.  It is 8.75 in X 6 in.

I made it for my friends Vickie and Ben who will be celebrating their 20th wedding anniversary next month. 

 

#7 Postcard is called “Primitive.”  The people were fussy cut and then appliqued onto the background fabric.  It measures 5.5 in X 7.5 in.

Here is the back

 

#8 Postcard is called “Deserted Island.”  It was also fussy cut and then appliqued onto the background fabric.  It measures 6 in X 8 in. 

This is the back

 

#9 Postcard is simply called “Parrot.”   The background fabric is two pieces sewn together.  The fussy cut parrot was then appliqued onto the background.    It measures 5.25 in X 7 in.

Hey Ramona ...you should send one into Post Secret.

http://www.postsecret.com/

I'll bet it would be noticed and put up on the site or in the next book.

Just that we'll know who the secret is from. ;)
