A new challenge for 2026 now open.

We challenge you to make art~

The TFAM ‘In Stitches’ group has come up with a challenge for 2025.  Because of the need for postcards for our charitable initiative, the decision was made to challenge TFAM Members as follows:
  • Make one postcard a month on a specific theme (see list below)
  • Each postcard has to have ‘some’ hand stitching on it (a little or a lot)
  • Collect names and pictures for display on the website. (Entry form here)
  • Those who complete all 12 months will have their name entered for a prize draw.
  • Cards do not have to be submitted during the intended month but any time during the year.
  • If your postcards are for donation, please deliver or mail them to Yvonne Carlson or Cathie Ugrin. (go to the "List of Members" to find contact information)

Postcard Details:
  • All cards should be 4 X 6 inches and have some type of stiff inside to give them a postcard feel.  Peltex or buckram have been suggested. 
  • The edges should be finished so no threads or raggedy edges are left.  ZigZag, satin stitch or binding all work well.
As they come in, photos of the postcards will appear here.
