Our sunset time is now 4:36
I took this shot just before
the sun went down....
The leaves definitely looked like
they were on fire...

and here is
Our front entry way lit up
with my stained glass lamp to
keep my teddies company...
**************************
Here is my first Fabric Journal
bound together
↧↧↧↧
This is the Winter one--
with a hard cover and a ribbon tie;
inside front cover and 1st page ↟↟
pages 2 & 3↻↻↻
and
and the final page and inside back cover
the owls form a back pocket..
I really like how this came together;
when I bound it today...
********************
I have also finished the
soft cover Christmas
Journal,
⇊⇊⇊
Below are the pages...
there will be more prompts, but I have decided
that my books are done;
as my hands are very tired
from all
this sewing...
**************************
Meanwhile, my 2nd
Christmas Web sewing is
coming along...
finish up...
These will be the centers of lap quilts
for my granddaughters...
whether i get them done in time
for Christmas, I really don't know...
but i am going to try!
WISH me luck;)))
Hugs from my fiery skies,

"The Autumn leaves, drift by my window,
ReplyDeletethe Autumn leaves of red and gold..."
--from the song--
There are a lot of craftwork and criativity on each page of your Fabric Journals. Christmas Web blocks are comming along nicely, fingers crossed here.
ReplyDeleteSunset at 4:36...so early in the afternoon.
Beautiful trees in the sunset! Your holiday books are lovely, Julierose. Such an amazing amount of work - no wonder your hands are tired!
ReplyDeleteBoth of your journals are lovely! So much tenderness and thoughtfulness in each page. Good for you for declaring yours done when you felt they were so (instead of pushing on beyond what made you happy). If the webs aren't finished, gift the parts that are and let the girls have some involvement in their completion - a gift that keeps on giving.
ReplyDeleteI can't even imagine what else could be added to the journals to make them any better than they are right now. Now you can devote your time to the granddaughters' quilts.
ReplyDeleteThe evening sky and leaves are stunning and your stained glass lamp is so welcoming in the suddenly dark afternoons.
ReplyDeleteYour journals are works of art, just magical. And very inspiring.
Love the Christmas Web project. Let me know if you need Christmassy or red strips, I think I have a whole bin.
Hope you and Tom are well.
love
lizzy
Your fabric journals are amazing, Julierose. It was fun to watch you create these. Wishing you all the luck in finishing the kid's lap quilts...you can do it!
ReplyDeleteSo much creativity!
ReplyDeleteYour books are so delightful. I hope you can display them some way so everyone that comes to your home can enjoy them. So pretty.
ReplyDeleteYou should be well pleased with your journals but I understand you wanting to take a little break to give your hands a rest. Mine are complaining bitterly about all the knitting I've been trying to do so I understand.
ReplyDeleteAs Wanda wrote, your journals look fully detailed to me. I want to make another Spiderweb quilt, too.
ReplyDeleteYour journals are coming along beautifully. Love the spiderweb blocks. You're working on some great projects.
ReplyDeleteYour Journals are a delight to see and I could spend hours looking at every page if I lived in the house next to yours! The love and care you have taken shows in every page. That's one magnificent photo of the trees, are they on your property?
ReplyDeleteYour journals are beautiful as is the Christmas Web. Love the little lamp keeping the teddy's company.
ReplyDeleteI love a picture-heavy post! Your journals are perfect - so much detail and a lovely feel of richness and generosity about them.
ReplyDeleteWow! your fabric journals are gorgeous. Each page is unique and beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI've always liked the spider web block.
happy November
Your books are delightful! Every Single Page!!! I wish I could hold them and look at each page more closely. Touch is so important when it comes to fabric.
