Quilted Dragonfly Postcards
 

Just wanted to share a couple of quilted postcards I made recently. I did mail them, not in an envelope, the rainbow one made its way on a long journey to South Africa and the green one now resides in Ferndale, Washington!! Fun to make!

OMG!!, so pretty, love all the attention to detail, the quliting, the colors. lucky people great design

Those are lovely.

those are adorable

Very pretty.hope they travel well. Thanks for sharing.

Wonderful. Great dragonflies and what a distance they traveled.
peace

So very pretty!

Those are so pretty. I love them.

Those are great. I love dragonflies

They are beautiful! Could you do a tutorial on them please?

They are cool. Love the quilting.

I agree! I would love to know how they were made.

Never have tried the quilted post card yet but your making me want to now, how cute are your dragon flies.

Turned out great!

Darling! Are they done on an embroidery machine?

They are so beautiful. Did you really mail them without and envelope?? You are very trusting that they would make it.

I love them. such little beauties.

Beautiful work, I too love making post cards.

They are very pretty. lucky recipients.

Those are such keepers! It's impossible for me to even imagine the hours they took. Worthy of a blue ribbon!

How could you bear to let them "fly away"? What little jewels they are.

You purchase clear plastic sleeves that you can mail your postcards in so they don't get dirty. I do it all the time. If you don't mind that everyone can read the message it works well.

Wonderfully done!

So beautiful, job well done. Lovely!

WOW! Those look like "art" cards.....gorgeous and with a ton of work!

Wow these are awesome!

They are absolutely gorgeous! I think I wouldn't "just mail them" because I would be afraid of them getting dirty! The plastic envelope idea though sounds good. Would you like my address?

Those are really beautiful! I would feel very fortunate if I received something like that in the mail.

Super cute and well done!!!

Creative and ingenius! I want to make some ..... thanks for the inspiration.

Quite lovely

I've seen post card on this board, but never thought to mail, NOT in an evelope... How do you address them. and have you ever gotten any back. How has others done this?

Nope, did them on my Old Viking and my Juki!!

I've put several in the mail and they all have arrived safely. Sometimes they get some post office smudges which are called post office art :^) Most everyone I know mails them naked, or not in an envelope. Use a fabric pen to write the address on.

:^) You bet!!!

Yes, I really did mail them with an envelope!!! I was worried with the first, but it arrived safely.

I will work on a tutorial for these. There are many ways to make them, so I will do what works well for me!!! I wonder if we need to get permission for doing a tutorial? I guess I will need to check it out further :^)

Thanks for all the kind comments. Sure is fun to share!!!

These are gorgeous. I really really love the quilting.

Your postcards are beautiful! Love the green that you used!
