CHRISTMAS IN JULY WORKS

 

Here is the title cover

for my 

Christmas Fabric [soft] Journal..

I love the little "snowdrifts"

on the lettering 💝

and

I just pinned together the 

"Christmas Wreath" page

for this soft Journal.

There is the wreath on the door--

and the scrap of Jason Yenter

fabric also wreathes the door

itself...;)))

So a double wreath...

I have to decide how to

embellish this one

as the fabric  

seems enough by itself....

The doorway is 

the first page and 

the entry into my Christmas

Fabric journal...

********************

Here is the finished

"Winter Fabric Journal"

[hard cover book]

page for the  

"Wreath" prompt

↓↓↓↓

I did some kantha stitchery

on the little Winter vignettes

(top L and bottom R),

and made a little suffolk puff

(aka yo-yo)--

and added a 

scrap of lace on the bottom...

The wreath is a ruched piece of 

sari silk tied down with

my Grand-mere's old

buttons and smaller

buttons from 

my good friend

Lizzy...

[who so kindly sent them to me--

thanks so much;)))]

I am (this time around)

wanting to keep my pages less

busy --trying to use

the fabrics themselves to

set the scenes....

********************

I have as yet not begun my "Pears"

hand quilting as I decided that the

cotton thread would be 

too hard on my hands;

and I have ordered some 

yellow hand quilting thread

online...

But it is all pin-basted and

ready to go;)))

T G I F everyone..

Stay cool and safe
