I love making fabric postcards and I thought a Halloween swap would be fun.
Your postcards need to be made of fabric, paper backing templates can be found on Pinterest, decorated as you desire. They can be mailed in a regular envelope if flat or even without an envelope if you so desire.with the price of postage going up I thought this would be a fun, inexpensive project to do.
You can have one partner or as many as you choose, just let me know how many you would like when you sign up.
Here is the partner List-please contact your partners for their address.
Julie-Dianna, Linda, Kelly, Sherry
Dianna-Julie, Karen, Sherry, Linda, Heather
Karen-Dianna, Linda, Heather
Kelly-Sherry
Sherry-Sherry has chosen to send to everyone :)
Heather-Sherry, Linda, Dianna
Wanda Sue-Sherry
Linda-Dianna, Julie, Sherry, Karen
Signups will go through September 30th. Mail out will be by October 15th.
A little rain can straighten a flower stem. A little love can change a life.

I'm going to join but I need to check my fabric before I decide how many partners.
Found my fabric - sign me up for 3 partners please.

Julie please add me to the list. I will send one to a partner. Life is busy right now with my son’s wedding a little over a month away, so better not commit to more than one. Thank you!

I would love to join this but can't really commit at this time.
A helpful hint -- several years ago I made fabric postcards to send to my family. Our postmaster charged me over $4 to send each one. He said they were small packages, even though they weighed less than an ounce. It would have been far less for me to put them in an envelope to mail them. Our postmaster is a bit of a stickler -- he charged me $5 to mail a padded envelope to someone who sent me an identical envelope for $1.80 so you may want to check with your postoffice before mailing.

I have put mine in an envelope before. If you keep them flat-no buttons, brads or rhinestones they will go through just fine for 60 cents.

Mine's still the same - I hope yours is too because I already mailed mine :) For once I had my swap ready to go before I had my partners!!!!! That never happens for me no matter how good my intentions are. I'm usually rushing trying to not be late!

I got mine from Sherry and Heather! I just love them!! Wow. I had the hardest time finding any fun, beautiful Halloween fabric here in our small town! Especially NOTHING like these two postcards! Thank you very much! I hope we can do this again for Christmas Julie?? This is my second time and each time I'm learning better and better how to do them without a good sewing machine!!:D

I received a postcard from Heather Friday. So cute, Heather. Love your trims.
I should have received another postcard. Last week my informed delivery email said I'd get a postcard on Thursday from Sherry. It has still not arrived. Maybe it will come this week. The USPS is not doing very well this year.
