anyone make these ideas please tks

If you go to the Quilting and Needlework Forum here on HGTV, some of the ladies there made some. They are just beautiful! HTH

They are fun and interesting. You will love them. Check them out.

What are inchies and what do you do with them?

I'm showing how far behind times I am.

I saw the pictures on the quilting/needlework board but I still don't understand how they are made and used.

Here's a pdf file one of the ladies shared on the quilting and needlework board here on HGTV.

Pat, you may need to install Adobe Reader. The link I posted is a PDF file and opens with Adobe Reader. It's free to install and very useful.
I checked again, and the link I posted is working.

Thanks for the information on inchies.

I am installing Adobe Reader right away. It is so nice that everyone is so helpful on this message board.

Thanks again
Have a nice day.

The inches are fun to make. I used some in a charm swap here a few months ago.

I love the inchies....has anyone made pins from these? Would attaching fabric to craft foam work for the backing? Thanks!

HI ladies,

Just popped in here from the Quilting board and saw your post on inchies. I just finished making a batch of inchies for a swap that is winding down. You can do a lot of fun things with them - glue a pin to the back for a cute little pin, or make a magnet for the frig. While snooping around on the internet I found this site - lots of pretties here displayed in various ways - check them out.

Also... I just hosted an ATC swap where everyone was to use fabric,laces, beads, etc . to make 2.5 x3.5 little pieces of art. I will be swapping them out Saturday so if you are interested in seeing some pretties check out our little fashion show coming soon.
