Oh where, oh where can we find them?

I buy the blank cards at JoAnn's and quilt my own insertions. I love making them and friends love getting them. I keep a box of fabric and patterns nearby. They're the perfect size for those few minutes you want to sit and sew but not on a big project. Like waiting for the repairman.

Do the cards have a cut out to insert your own add ons? I'd like to find them.

I'll make them into a PDF file that ya'll can print at home if you'd like. You'd just need cardstock for your printer (and a color printer)

Where do you find cards with ovals or squares in the middle?
