We had the following options when creating our March cards:
Color Palette Option
Sketch Option
Theme Options: Gnomes / House or Home / Friendship
Product / Technique Options: Stamps / Patchwork
As usual, I chose the theme of friendship and this time I also used the technique of patchwork. I took that to mean patchwork quilt and used a quilt die. I die cut it 5 different times, mixed the patterns and made 5 quilts! This one was my fave. I assembled them all on a stitched rectangle and, since the quilt was a square, added a panel of one of the patterns to the bottom. Matted it and adhered to an A2 card base. A die cut "hello" and "friend" with a small banner comprised the sentiment.
I'm expecting a wonderful card from Gail in Norway. Gail helps run the Card Chain Challenge and does a great job! I'll add a photo once I receive the card but I told her to go ahead and reveal it so I can see it now! I'm helping my dad for a bit so I'll check the mail later this week...
That's it for today, friends. Want to play along? April sign-ups run until 4/6/26 - go HERE for details! You simply make and mail one card & then get one - so fun!!

Great patchwork card Linda, it looks lovely and cosy! Way to deliver it in style too, wouldn’t it be nice if we could do crafty shopping and lunch with each and every CCC?!
A true labor of love, much like creating a real quilt. A lovely friendship card.

What a fabulous quilt you've created, Linda! How fun that you got to deliver your card in person!
Oh wow--that quilt is wonderful! How fun that you and Jeanne can get together. I didn't realize you were that close to each other.
Wow, that looks amazing. The colors and patterns harmonize beautifully.
