I specialize in one of a kind landscape and nature postcards featuring outdoor scenes. These handmade quilted fabric postcard art quilts can actually be mailed and when received, they can be framed. A card and gift all in one!
These little pieces of art make appreciated hostess gifts for under $20. Need wedding party gifts? These are the perfect solution. Each one can be customized to reflect the recipient's personality.
Most of the pieces in the shop are 4" by 6", some are 5" by 7" but I can make any size up to 11" by 14". I love the challenge of a custom order. I can customize using YOUR photo.
Gift wrapping and shipping directly to the recipient of the gift is a service I gladly provide. Add a message when ordering or send a conversation through ETSY.
My work is featured here:
* Le Bonheur Children's Hospital in Memphis, TN
* Hamilton Williams Gallery in Morganton, NC
* Art Quilting Studio Magazine Summer 2015, Winter 2019 and Autumn 2019.
*Sew Somerset Winter 2018 issue.
The quilted fabric postcards are made by adding layers of fabric to create the design and then stitching each layer. It's a multi step process. Each quilted fabric postcard is individually made.
How can a quilted fabric postcard be used? Send as a greeting card for a special occasion or just because. When it is received, it can be framed or rested on an easel and kept forever.

I'm not designated as a "Star Seller" by Etsy because I don't sell enough items and don't meet the minimum amount of money. I have been on Etsy since 2007, have all 5 Star reviews, mail all orders out either the day I receive the order or the next working day, and answer all conversations/messages within a few minutes of receiving them. So I consider myself a star seller. What do you think?

5 out of 5 starsThe pictures are so lovely! I can just imagine myself walking on the hanging bridge it is so realistic! Workmanship was top notch and turn around from ordering to receipt of product was very short time-alot shorter than I expected. You will not go wrong with ordering from SewUpscale!!!

5 out of 5 starsMy friend made a custom order of 5 cards from Linda. Got them today and they are literally breathtaking. The detail is absolutely stunning. All of the little touches and creativity just take these cards to a new level. The fabrics she used have such tiny detail and the stitch styles she used enhances the final scene in the card at a whole new level. You flip through to admire them and you just get lost in them. Linda they are just spectacular. I am sure they will be passed down through the generations. Quality. Quality. Quality. Thank you for taking her order.

Frequently asked questions
Can the post cards actually be sent in the mail?
Yes they can. The address can be written directly on the back of the postcard and then inserted into the clear vinyl mailer provided. It is better to have it hand stamped instead of sending through the machine. It costs about $1.00 to mail.
Can the postcards be framed?
Yes. They are 4” by 6” or 5” by 7” and fit nicely into a standard inexpensive frame.
I have a special photo. Can you do a custom piece for me?
I love doing custom pieces. If you have a photo you would like made into fabric, pleasesend me a message.
Is your artwork original?
Yes, it is always my own design. I make one of a kind pieces. Sometimes the designs are similar but the fabric will be different.
