Three Fat Quarter Challenge

  During the summer, the Elkhorn Creek Quilt Guild exchanges 3 fat quarters that are put in a brown bag along with the owner's name.  Bags are drawn & taken home where the fat quarters are turned into a gift.  Here is what I did with the 3 fat quarters I took home.

 These cards are blank inside
so one can write or draw something to match the occasion.




 A cloth envelope made to hold the cards and envelopes.




 Two mug organizers and



 a wrist pin cushion were also made.


 
 The scraps in the bottom right corner of the picture above
were the leftovers of the 3 fat quarter challenge.

Info about making an envelope
       The envelope can be made from a template using one sheet of paper that works perfectly with this "half page" card. Just do a web search. Some are PDF files. However some are jpeg (picture files) and if so, right click on the picture & download as an image which will print on a full sheet of paper. Use that as a template to trace around, so printer ink doesn't need to be used every time you make an envelope. No resizing should be needed to print. I used the ruler & rotary cutter to cut out 6 at a time.  Use a glue stick to hold.   (info updated 4/21/18)
