    I'd love to make some but don't think they'd be appreciated.

    now this is the best idea if you are going to all the wrok to make, allows them to save for their tree and would be a nice reminder of you and it will not break, yea!

    I just finished making a box of 12 "Four Season" note cards for my friend's birthday. They were 4.25 X 5.5 blank note cards w/envelopes. Most of them were layered and sewn landscape scenes, though I did include one machine applique per season. I used fabric scraps from my stash. Very fun project ... rather addicting. Designing the scenes was the most time consuming aspect. I designed the scenes onto a square of Pellon 809 Decor Bond, slightly larger than note card. Then I cut it down to 4.25 X 5.5 and attached to the front of the card by sewing 1/8" all around. Which looked very neat on the inside of the card (I did not want all the stitch lines and threads to be visible from the inside). Hopefully I can post a photo soon.
