[lace] postcards
Hello All! Has anyone mounted lace on fabric postcards sent them thru the mail? Did they arrive unscathed? I'm also trying to contact exchange participants in groups #2, 6, 9, 10, 11. If you're in one, would you please contact me off list? Thanks.

Re: [lace] postcards
HI Susan and everyone My free advice is ... don't. Paste a colour photocopy of the lace to the card, or compose a picture with the lace that you print yourself, adjust/trim to postcard size. Send your real lace inside an envelope ;) On 6/28/11, hottl...@neo.rr.com hottl...@neo.rr.com wrote: Hello All!

Re: [lace] postcards
I've not tried lace on a postcard, but I have a friend who stitches her own postcards and mails them. She says they have always arrived fine. She advises taking them to the post office and having them hand stamped / franked there Sue sueba...@comcast.net On 6/28/11, hottl...@neo.rr.com hottl...@neo.rr.com wrote: Hello All!

Re: [lace] postcards
Anything stuck to the outside of a piece of mail is subject to whatever processes the piece goes through - there is the chance card and lace will get mangled or smeared along the way, especially in sorting machinery. Whether it is worth the chance depends on the sender.

Re: [lace] postcards
My suggestion is to put the card with lace attaché into an envelope mail. It is safer that way. However, when I was a child my pen friend from England sent me a card from Brugge. The girls apron is lace. The card is covered with something like cling wrap and it arrived safe. Hope this helps.

Re: [lace] postcards
Oh Dear Bev! I believe you have issued a challenge! My question comes from having made sent crazy quilted fabric postcards that arrived in good order were well received by the addressees. Naturally I assumed that lace would work too but hoped to leap frog on someone else's experience. Yet another project...

RE: Re: [lace] postcards
2 years ago I painted postcards and mailed them to my daughter. They all got smeared/rubbed on some spot. I like the idea of an envelope for protection./ Lauren - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.

Thank you to all three who sent me their postcards. I can't remember who they were because my grandkids took the postcards as fast as they could because they were COOL.
