Thank you Take A Word for the theme MAIL. I love it, I send it, I recieve it, I save it for years, I have mail my Grandma saved for decades, and I often use it in my projects. This week I had tried out this bird stencil on some scraps of fabric. I added the postcard stamp, fabric stamp, and quilted it. I left the batting and backing showing for that shabby look. I sewed on some ribbon so I could tie it around a stack of postcards I'm sending as a gift. I realized it worked perfect to tie around my paint brush cup to jazz it up a bit.

What a fantastic creation- I love your fabric postcard and clever use. Totally inspiring Katie! I can see a whole quilt made of clever postcards like this...
