This photo glued into the journal was from a May 2006 “Blueprint” magazine (now ceased publishing by Martha Stewart).
I liked the center design – would make a GREAT quilting design, so would the lower images.
One day when I am stuck for ideas, I can flip thru these journals (have 5 already) and something might spark an idea or quilt design or a quilting design idea.
I have 3 journals that are the same, they are supposed to be for scrapbooking and I had bought them off ebay 3 years ago….I believe I paid more in postage than the actual books, but I like them and need to look for more of them that size. Another journal was a gift from Rose Anne & her sister – its overflowing. The latest one is a sketchbook that DH & I each found while in Toronto last Christmas when our DD took us to her favourite art supply store…….MAN, that was overwhelming! Another story indeed. DH uses his for sketching (he’s gotten back into drawing and painting this past year).
The image on the right….>
was a Jones N.Y. signature ad in Real Simple, October 2006 issue….another GREAT quilting design possibility.
See the little drawing above….that was me sketching out a beading design.
So……I challenge you all to LOOK, to see what is around you. When you think you are stumped for ideas, flip thru a magazine or catalogue and see what you can find. START A INSPIRATION JOURNAL!!!
THANK YOU MARK for printing a couple pages from my journal!
