A Postcrossing quilt!
About a year ago, Annett (aka knetty from Germany joined Postcrossing. A fan of crafts, in her profile she invited members to send her pieces of fabric with their postcards, so that one day she could make a quilt of all the fabrics... and now it is done, and it is a beauty!

User testimonials
“Every time I get a card it makes me happy and smiling. Because it is exciting to learn something about someone else. Because it has made me see that people really are the same everywhere on the globe. And because Postcrossing is about sending peaceful messages - it earns the Nobel Peace Prize”
Virpi, Finland
