Cards - something special for your special someones This year has been difficult for many of us - the concentration required to make big projects and get on with stuff seems to have gone missing to a degree. So, small stuff! I love to make cards, as I know they will be unique to the receiver and show just how much I care. Cards above are made from a reduced version of the present block here (link to pdf pattern), and a simple no-sew Tree version, instructions below...
	I made some simple quilty ideas, and cut my own cards - an A4 card cut in half and folded is the ideal size... For this one I glued down a square of silver fabric then added a Fandango with a button in blue batik Here's a Youtube link for Fandangos with Jennie Rayment
	Cards on the shelf of the dresser - think how well they might look on yours Left-hand card is made with two Suffolk Puffs from 4 and 5-inch circles, and a pretty button Many thanks to Jo and Dill of The Yard at Raveningham for lending their pretty shop - opening again (and the Ravenous Cafe) on 3rd December!
	Simple no-sew tree card - I started with a folded card and drew lines 1/2 inch apart on the left-hand inside I then drew a central ine and marked lines either side as shown in a trianglish manner. I cut slots in the card as shown, plus a wider pair at the bottom to make the pot. Erase the pencil lines after you have made the cuts
	I cut 1/2 inch strips of various fabrics and threaded them through the slots to fill up the tree. I trimmed them off at the back about 1/2 inch long and then turned then towards the middle and taped the ends down
	Like so...
		Finished! Try other shapes?
