With the scraps from the fabric that I had created I made some 5&#215;7 mini quilts that I stitched to card stock and made into mini quilt cards. I stashed the cards away in a box ready to send. I found myself reaching into that box numerous times this month, two dear friends had close family or friends pass away this month, another friend is going through chemo treatment. Sometimes it\u2019s hard to find the right words to send to a friend in need and what is most important is to just let them know they are in your thoughts. I found these cards hit the right note. They are a little piece of me- my art and my heart.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2063\" style=\"width: 670px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/lisathorpeartist.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/05\/214a-steps.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2063\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2063\" src=\"https:\/\/lisathorpeartist.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/05\/214a-steps.jpg?resize=660%2C462\" alt=\"I recently created more fabric using my new favorite medium, Tint It spray with stencils.
