I really enjoy quilt-style cards. I have not had a chance to actually sew on one before today. I cut 1 1/4" squares on my Cricut from various October Afternoon papers, then used a zig-zag stitch around every edge to create a grid. The frame for the sentiment is also cut using my Cricut, then I used foam tape to pop up the frame panel.
I was inspired by the
October Afternoon "Create a Grid" challenge.
Supplies:
Cricut cartridges: Plantin Schoolbook (squares) and
Elegant Edges (oblong frame)
Papers: October Afternoon "The Thrift Shop" and "Modern Homemaker"
Stamp: Stampin' Up! Well Scripted
ink: Stampin' Up! real red and bordering blue

I loooooooove this card!! Those papers are fantastic, and the stitching is delicious! I too love this type of card, I guess it appeals to that part of me who watched my mother quilt. And I still enjoy looking at this card I made, http://alienanessa.wordpress.com/2008/09/02/happy-harvest-card/
