They are so much fun to make.
I love how they use up the skinny strips that are too thin to use for anything else.
These pink ones will be making their way to a good friend who loves pink.
And a new puppy, Daisy, came to live at our house. We love her! Thanks Linda!
Hope you have a fantastic weekend!

Those cards are great! It looks like they would be a QUICK gift to make for anyone. I love them!
How do you finish the edges of the fabric? Do you stitch it on or glue it?
The cards are VERY cute!
Those cards are really cute!
Daisy looks happy in her new home ;) Glad you like her, you're very welcome.
tara,
they are just sewn on with the raw edges exposed. much like the cards in denyse schmidt's quilt book.

oh, those cards are so sweet! have a great weekend!
I like the cards but what do you do with them?
sandyquilts,
write a note inside and send them in the mail. :) the strips of fabric are sewn onto a rectangular piece of paper, then I attach that piece to a blank card with double sided tape to hide the messy backing.

What a wonderful way to use up scraps! I'll have to do that as well. The puppy is adorable.
Beautiful! Beautiful! I love both the cards and the puppy (it is just adorable)
I like the cards as well.
I think I've seen them here one other time too, but have yet to see one in real life : )
Hmmm. Thanks for the idea! I hate those skinny strips, but now I have a *real* reason to keep them!
I love the cards also! Can you please add me to the quilt-a-long? I am thinking about trying it in navy and red, but we'll see what I find at the fabric store tomorrow!
Thanks,
Amanda

Cute cards. And Daisy is a great name for a puppy ;)
I love that you use every last little bit of your fabric... and create such pieces of beauty with what others would toss away.
what a great idea!
the cards are super.
I love this blog and being able to see what everyone is doing. I am only a novice quilter so don't feel that I can do what you all are doing. I just finished my third quilt and it is because of you Amandajean and all who are noted on the right side of your page.

I love the cards! I made a few last night -- after midnight, I was so excited about them -- and I bought blank cards just now to make more tonight.
