Quilted Postcards

Hi - Just had a visit with my family out at the farm! In lieu of thank you notes, I made these postcards and am sending them out today. I'm taking a trip to the post office because I'm not sure of the postage. They are 5x7. One has raw edge flowers on it, another is pieced with small strips of fabric covered with tulle, and the last is cow fabric with some thread painting. I've included a close up of the postcards because it's hard to see the depth with an overhead shot. Thanks for looking!

How creative! My favorite is the cow. Maybe they will put a magnet on back and place on fridge - that's what I would do.

Sorry...no, I did not take a pic of the back. I cut a piece of 5x7 cardstock and drew a line down the middle. Addressed the right side and put my note on the left.

Because of the thickness, the postage was $2.06. They were too big to go at the postcard rate. Instead the clerk weighed them and posted them at the first class rate.

Those are really cute. Hope the netting doesn't get messed up.
