ATCs

ATCs

Today I have been working on some ATCs.  Artist Trading Cards.  I am in a birthday exchange and am very behind and then I need some for a couple of creative minds so, the knitting needles and book binding materials have been laid down the ATCs picked up.  




I couldn't help but take a picture of the thread box!  I love it!











And some mini crazy quilts ready to be turned into ATCs
3"X21/2" when finished.










And one in progress.











And one that is finished.  Now all I need to do is to glue it onto a 3"X21/2" rectangle of card stock and sign my name, print my name and email, blog, address, info.  I trade with people all around the world so that virtual address is important to me.  I like seeing where my ATCs have come from.  







And just for fun, a picture of my scissors.  I love scissors!  In this one place alone --  the cozy den where I do a lot of knitting and hand sewing, -- I have these 5 scissors.  In the kitchen? 1.  In the car, 1. In my studio, another 3.  Always at the ready!!!!!!


Google ATCs and see what you can learn.  Perhaps you will be starting to create them and trade them!  Have a great day!!!
