His was one HOT week at the Jersey shore and to keep cool we headed to the beach, I never travel with out my art supplies and was busy painting away for my SEWN class.... |
I painted the papers and cut them into thin strips |
and then sewn them together...... |
then sewed this hexagon shape and then started on a mini travel journal for me to take along with me on my summer travels...... |
I have plenty of sewn paper strips and love incorporating them back onto my journal pages..... |
having some fun trying to use up all my scraps..... |
well happy to say I have paper journal #3 ready to be painted, patterned and doodled up.......... |
love playing with different size pages and folds...... |
I love the size of this little journal, easy to take with me to occupy my time where ever I may go, and can easily fit in my bag..... |
now I have 3 painted paper journals just waiting for me to fill up.... |
These are all so precious Laura. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeletevery colorful and fun.
ReplyDeleteOh! Oh Oh SOOO very delightful!! Love everyone of them, especially the mini journal with boat....really wonderful!! I see you have a Bernina....I have been sewing on my cheapy Singer for paper worrying that it might mess up my good Bernina....do you find any problems with using your GOOD machine....thinking it might be easier in the long run....but I sew with fabric too and was wondering about the paper being too hard on a machine. Your work is wonderful!!
ReplyDeleteOh!!! thanks so much.... I always use my Bernina and have had no problems with it...(knock on wood)I live very close to a sewing shop that only sells berninas if I have a problem......I think it is less lint so maybe better on machine.....I have to check out your work... enjoy your day! and thanks again
DeleteSuch a cute idea, I love the 'sea' page! I would love to learn how to do something like this!
