Comment by Kathryn Cooke on January 31, 2013 at 3:53 Ingegard, there are several groups on Flickr to view both fabric postcards and ATCs.. http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=fabric%20postcards ; http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=fabric%20ATCs ; or, if you check the last posts on the various discussions, you will find that many participants post their photographs there...

Comment by ingegärd eknor on January 27, 2013 at 4:20 Is it possible to see your already finished and swaped postcard ( and ATC) somewhere,at a gallery? That would be nice.
Comment by Carol Mindrup on January 18, 2013 at 17:16 I just added my postcard received from Heike. Really appreciated it and have enjoyed looking at it and all your beautiful workmanship and time spent on it. The postage stamps were just as pretty. Thanks sooooo much. Carol M.
Comment by Susan Low on January 17, 2013 at 17:55 Patricia, your China postcard is on it's way over the ocean to your place. I just mailed it today at the post office. Let me know when you have received it. Thanks!
Mary et al, a person uses what they like to work with.
I always make a foundation from fabric that has as little give and stretch as possible. When finished the foundation doesn't show, it is to keep the work from deforming. Currently I like polyester silk screen fabric. I layer other fabrics on that for working thickness, color, texture, and design. You work in whatever methods you like, applique, quilt, embroidery, cross stitch...whatever.

Comment by Mary Dahlberg on December 29, 2012 at 11:51 Hello, New to fabric post cards. Looking forward to learning from everyone. First question, what do you use, quilter's cotton?, batting?, interfacing?, etc. Would love to hear from you.
