advertisers are sending plastic coated cards! These are great for making templates!

Also good when paper piecing to use as the fold line for the fabric. Gives a good crease.

Sometimes I get a larger one with a small card perforated in it. The large piece is about 4" x 6" and is great for scraping dough off the counter.

I haven't received any of these. What are they originally intended for?

Just another way to show how resourceful quilters are!

I made a wrist pin cushion and used a piece in the bottom of the cushion so I don't stick myself with the pins.
