These are awesome little crafts to do and so much can be done with them too! Teesha Moore is an artist who created these patches and covers her art journals with them. However, I've seen many other projects with them too.

The basic gist of them is to take 2 pieces of fabric and a piece of batting (although I'm sure that felt or something similar would be fine too) and make a tiny quilt with the pieces. You don't have to be able to sew by machine, in fact i'd say 99% of the patches I've seen are hand-sewn. Also, it actually looks ok if you embroider it through both front and back of the pieces as they most likely will be used to put together another craft. The possibilities are really endless.....

There's a board on my pinterest titled Teesha Moore Patches or you can go to craftster.org and search teesha moore for ideas and inspiration. If you have any questions, please ask me. I check my messages every day, so I'll answer as soon as I get them.

You'll have 1 partner and make your partner 4 patches, that are no larger than 3"x3", the smaller the better for this swap. Since these are small, they're fairly quick to put together. Patches are sender's choice, so feel free to start when you sign up.

The not so fun stuff.........no recent 1's at all, no 3's in the last 6 months, if you have some and feel you should be able to participate in the swap, contact me and I'm sure we can work something out :) That being said, only sign up if you intend to complete the swap and have fun!

(The patch in the photo is one I made)

I've never heard of these, but I LOVE them!! I think I'm going to become addicted. I looked at your link and those purses are to die for! :)

The last 4 tutorials are about these patches and making journals from them http://www.teeshamoore.com/techniques/pages1.html

Thanks @kittylover and @glitterfae ! Those 4 tutorials are awesome and really broke it down into simple instructions. Now I'm confident I can make one (or twelve!) worth swapping. :)

I can't wait. I want to eventually make a purse.

And @BennysMumma I think you should start a Teesha Moore group!

:D

I have two of my patches done already and I'm LOVING these. I don't do mine exactly like the tutorial but I get the same results.
