Hello fellow quilters,
I've been quilting for many years, but this new term that I've encountered has me stumped... A.T.C.
From googling the letters, I'm figuring that it's a small hand (machine?) sewn fabric "thingy" and similar to those "collectable" (UGH!) postcards a couple years back... but...
What do the letters stand for?
Is there a standard size?
and my final question... WHY????? Hahaha
Thanks for enlightening this senior citizen.

A.T.C's I have come across this in card making. It stands for Artists Trading Cards. These are standard wallet size cards i.e.Visa, Master Card etc. and are 2"x3.5" approx. From what I gather they cannot be sold but traded. Details go on the back such as batch No.title,date etc. Maybe somebody else has more information.

Artist Trading Cards (ATC's) are very addictive! I started making them a year ago. http://www.flickr.com/photos/3864027...7620857594916/ You can even make them out of fabric!
