    These are mailable postcards, fabric on both sides, timtex in the middle and permanent ink. So they can be legally mailed, but also used as coasters or something when received. Some are better than others. I was trying out a technique by Linda Matthews that uses thread wrapped yarn as cording. Not the most economical method, but fun if you are into mixed media art. Some are paper pieced, some are fused, some are just random pieced scraps.
