    I would think that you could find some fabric with cards. You have to think sometimes that if the fabric is busy, you won't see the quilting.

    That's just what I thought too. I have a dremel but I dont think it has a melting tip. I'm not sure what kind of attachments it has cause I haven't used it yet. Haven't even had it out of the pkg. That I will have to look into next. I tried cutting around the imagines on the cards with an exacto knife but I didn't have much luck. Going to try the knife again and the dremel this week end. Thanks so much for the suggestions!

    susanwilley, I have some fabric with card suits on it. I used some of it to make a donation fund raising quilt but have some left. If you would like what's remaining, PM me also I can send you a pic of the fabric first.

    If it's quilting the card motifs that you want to do, one company has a set of the four longarm templates for doing just that, but I don't remember the company offhand.
