2011 Journal Quilt 7

You may recognize this one from a few days ago, a found item in the bottom of a drawer.  It is a Cindy Losekamp design and I used her instructions to do the sewing machine fancy stitches to resemble branches and flowers.  I taught the class several times for our local sewing machine store.  It was about 10" x 12" so I trimmed it to 8.5" x 11" to match my other Journal Quilts.

It's pretty and isn't it fun to finish something in a different but satisfying way?

Double clicking on your journal photo was a treat. The fancy stitching and picture creation are wonderful! Does this journal cover happen to be for sale?
