Finished another artist trade card for the stitchin fingers atc birthday swap. The back piece of fabric is from an old 100% polyester blouse, the star shapes were cut from a piece of old window curtains and the wooden beads were once on a necklace. I did some mark making, holes and cuts along the outside with the soldering iron and then did some random stitching on top. 2 1/2 x 3 1/2" is the perfect size to be creative, have fun with and swap with others!
