Ok rsea.i haven't made mine yet so I'll be late sending as I'm "down south" but I will be in so that's 2.

R-sea 11-02-2020 03:18 AM

I am going down South to Silver Sands this Friday for a week so I will take mine and send it from there if I get a name

marietta 11-02-2020 07:24 AM

I only recently started doing fabric postcards, so am not as good as ya'l lol. But would like to join in on the swap.

marietta 11-02-2020 12:06 PM

can the post cards be a bit bigger than 4x6?

m-fay 11-03-2020 06:35 AM

I have seen larger postcards so I don't see why not. Not too much larger though

marietta 11-03-2020 10:11 AM

Thanks, it wouldn't be bigger than say 5x6 or 5x7. I will just redo the one I was working on to make sure the size is 4x6.

m-fay 11-04-2020 04:45 PM

Looks like there's only 3 of us so I'll bow out and rsea and Marrietta to swap. Can you pm each other for an address please.

mpepperm37 11-04-2020 04:59 PM

Lena1952 11-05-2020 04:45 AM

I haven't done a post card in while. I'd like to join in if it's not too late. If it makes things difficult can I sign up now for December?

mpepperm37 11-05-2020 06:40 AM

If that makes it 5, I’ll wait for next month.

m-fay 11-05-2020 03:06 PM

I really stuffed up here. I'm travelling and put the post up late and changed the date of sign ups to the 6th and then assignednames on the original date 3rd. I haven't posted mine yet so it's easy to change

Lena1952 11-12-2020 10:37 AM

Just a quick note to let you know my post card shipped today. Many thanks for moderating. I enjoy these small gems. Just an FYI as to the size: I have a Post Card Pocket Display hanger that is sized for 4"x 6" cards. Larger sized cards are welcome but will not fit my display holder.

mpepperm37 11-13-2020 07:49 AM

Sent mine yesterday, 11/12.

marietta 11-18-2020 07:38 AM

I received Marietta's post card yesterday . Thankyou . I am guessing the leaves are the colour of your autumn The leaves in my post card are what are found in our bush all year around . In spring the bush comes alive with colour from the ground to top of trees

marietta 12-09-2020 05:10 PM

Yes, R-sea, those are the fall colors in the US, mostly up north tho.
Loved your post card. Can't wait to see your colors in the Spring.
