All these art forms are related to each other. This is miniature fabric art.
A fabric postcard is a 3-1/2″ x 5″ fabric block
A fiber art trading card is a 2-1/2″ x 3-1/2″ fabric block
An artist trading doll is a “hybrid” of an ATC and a paperdoll. I have noticed that they are often made in “jumping jack” form, with movable limbs.
A fabric inchie is – naturally – a 1″ x 1″ fabric block
A fiber art trading pin is a pin, a brooch, made of fabric – no limits in size, techniques or form
A fiber art trading book is a fabric book – a book made of fabric. Here too there are no limits. Some make the whole book of fabric, like children’s picture books, some make an altered book, covering an existing book with fabric art blocks.
A doll quilt is exactly what it says – a miniature quilt, doll size. So – it too can alter in size from ATC size to baby quilt size. The doll quilts are usually very traditional pieced quilts, but the fabric artists are getting into this area of fiber crafts as well.
I think this is very exciting and inspiring… Now if I only could stop procrastinating and get some done 😀
