Also, those gingerbread kids are adorable! Is the girl wearing lace or did you fancy up the trim yourself? I don't think I've seen trim like that! The grandchildren will adore them!

And then, Judith, you go ahead & make a wonderful Christmas tree! You're really so very good with this fabric postcard stuff!

Thank you ctyankee. I did use a trim that was already premade and made it look like a dress. I got the trim at Michaels in their 1.50 bins. Although, I think I got it or about .50 on clearance. I always keep an eye on those bins. They get some good stuff sometimes.

You can mail them to Recovering American Soldier c/o Walter Reed Army Medical Center 6900 Georgia Avenue NW Washington, DC 20307-5001. I know this is a huge request but do what you can, I know what ever they receive they will be appreciated. If you send one please post pictures.

Hey Armylady, I'm in. I will make up a couple of extras and get them sent off by the beginning of next week.

Thank you Judith for organizing this swap. I so appreciate this group, thanks to all..................Happy Winter or Merry Christmas ...................................calla

Thank you Calla.

You ladies all make this the best swap. I love it as much as yall do. My next favorite part before you ladies is that I get to try out all kinds of new techniques and have fun while I'm doing it. And I always get something new and unique in return. That's just a bonus.

Owlie, I imagine it works it works like operation Christmas cards to our troops. Just make a unisex one and be sure to include words of incouragement on them.
