Quilting and Patchwork

Using Quilts Designs for Post Cards

by Mary Emma Allen on July 16th, 2006

Why not take photos of your quilts and hangings and make post cards and note paper?, Sometimes photo the whole piece; for others you’ll chose only a portion of the item.  By using a digital camera, you can select your best photos and put them right into your computer.

If you do use photos taken with a traditional camera, you can scan them into your computer and have them ready for printing.

Simply get some postcard stock (white or another color that will coordinate well) and print the quilt design onto the card.  You can type a quote or saying over this; or you can place it on the lefthand side of the back, under your return address.

Also, if you have a small piece of quilt work, lay it on your scanner and  work with that picture for your post cards or notepaper.  You also can use the fabric postcards.  Scan them and print onto card stock.

Many more people can enjoy your work this way.
