Fabric Postcard Pear

A Paper Pieced Pear 

I've always wanted to make a fabric postcard. 
And guess what I found  when looking through the latest issue , #4 ,  of Paper Piecing 1/4 "  digital magazine?

Yay!  A pattern for making a paper pieced pear post card !

(Try saying that 3 times fast !)

**  Maybe you'll  want to just look at the pretty paper pieced pear postcard pictures from now on, if you are getting tired of my alliterations!

 This is a fun pattern... it comes out to be 4 " by 6 ".    

A Pear fabric postcard       pattern by Janeen at Quilt Art Designs
  from Paper Piecing 1/4" digital magazine issue 4 (here)

I found this biscotti jar when I looked for a snack  around in my kitchen  for some items
to 'pose' with my pear postcard !

Back of postcard: 
  { or alternate title: The posterior paper pieced  pear postcard preparations: } 

I found a free postcard template online, and saved it to a file.
Then, I used Print Artist software to import:
                                 ~  my Susie's Sunroom button as the stamp

                                 ~  and the text , "This is a postcard made at Susie's Sunroom. "

I printed my customized  postcard template on a  Printed Treasures fabric sheet . (here)  Two fit onto my Printed Treasures fabric sheet.
{ Note:   I had trouble getting all of the paper backing off of the sheet.  It is not a problem with making a post card. Could it be because my fabric sheets are older? )
Yay! There is one back ready to go for another fabric postcard!

Just pondering...Would anyone be interested in a fabric paper pieced  postcard swap ?


Oh, and just a reminder that next week-  March 2-8 - begins the
