I joined a postcard swap with a Stained Glass theme. It took me the longest time to figure out what I wanted to do. I finally chose 5 hand dyed fabrics and stacked them up. I cut through all 5 at once, until I had 5 separate pieces of each color. I used each color once on each postcard, fusing them down, and finally I satin stitched between the colors with black thread. I think they really do look like stained glass - and they look kinda nice all put together. I might use this technique again in the future - maybe for a background.

You'll be getting one from me very soon - not one of these, but I think you'll like it! ~M~
Wonderful idea, may I use it for another swap and make something alike?
Have a great creative week, love your blog,
take care, Susi
