75 days into the 100 days and the project is still making me smile every day – I love sending these little guys out in the world to say, “hi I hope you are doing well”! I made a short (free) tutorial on how to make these mini quilts – which is really all they are. A quick make, and doesn’t require a lot of materials – just the Peltex Ultra Firm interfacing, but lacking that, you could use card stock. Take a peek at it, maybe you’ll be inspired to make one for a friend who needs cheering up! Look under the “tutorials” tab.

Are you making Shutterfly books or anything to memorialize all your work?
Hey Jamie – yes I made Snapfish books the previous two 100 Day Projects, and will do the same this year as well. I may also make myself a poster with all 100 postcards on it – sort of like those posters you see with all the doors on them – The Doorways of Rome kind of thing.
99, It occurs to me – are these photos from a COLLAGE maker?
Agreed the postcards bring me joy – in full transparency – I continue to be a little salty when my favorites don’t come my way – still haven’t recovered from your grandson receiving the Peeps postcard! I guess I could watch the tutorial and make my own…..
The patterns and quilting are such fun – know I’m also enjoying the background location of the pictures of postcards – from flowers to tractor wheels!
Presentation and execution – delightful!
