Quilted Postcard - Tidepools - Ebb Tide

Description

This series of quilted post cards inspired by the beach I call Tidepools - the colors make me think of the wonderful things you find in these. Made from strips and pieces cut from my fabric stash, I pieced them together collage style, added decorative stitching to hold the layers together and quilted them with sea stars, urchins, and other sea life into wonderful little works of art that you can send in the mail.

This card measures 4 x 6 inches, and is finished on the edges with a zig zag stitch using varigated thread. Card stock finishes the back to make it stiff, and is ready to write a message on. Add a 42 cent stamp and it's ready to go make someone's day! Also pretty in a frame by itself, or in a set.

Handmade by me in my smoke free studio!
