Ok...I feel like an idiot! I just did the finishing touches on my cards, and I forgot to adhere the card to the back. Once I got it sewed on around the edges, the whole back of the card popped off.
Any ideas how to fix it?

Double stick fusible web or just do some quilting on the body of the postcard then satin stitch / zigzag around the 4 edges

If I adhere it with the double stick now, should I do some stitching in the body of the card to make sure it sticks?

Ok Mine are on their way to the USA! Posted 11am on Wednesday 28th Sept. Two of you ladies will have to wait for about 10 days before you receive them so I hope it will be worth the wait. I'll be waiting patiently with you as it takes just as long to get to Australia. LOL
I think it is a great idea to make a postcard to send to our hostess. ABD please send me your postal address too.
