Fabric ATC's

I never knew what an ATC was until I saw swaps on Swap-Bot for them. I Googled ATC's to find directions on how to make them. I have made a few since then. We have a swap going on now for fabric ATC's. Here are two that I made. One I mailed off, the other is a surprise for someone else.

They measure 3 1/2 inches x 2 1/2 inches.(The same size as baseball cards.) I left the lace open on one end and inserted a button before sewing it closed.

Sewing Themed Greeting Cards






I hosted a group swap on Swap-Bot where you had to make 2 sewing themed greeting cards to send to your partner. I ended up having to make four. One of the participants wasn't happy with the quality of cards her partner sent her. So I sent her some too. The lace on two of the cards is from 1976. I bought a sewing kit at an estate sale last year. It was full of vintage sewing supplies. The paper measuring tape was part of the loot. I thought it would look great on some cards.
