I have started this new thread to replace the old one which was just too full.
Here is something I'm working on.

I agree with you, Judith. I haven't made another junk journal since the exchange.

Beautiful CJ. I love junk journals but haven't had the heart to do one since I got burned on an exchange.

I also dabble a bit in "Junk Journals". I've made some as birthday gifts for friends.
This one is just 8 inches tall and 4 inches wide and it for me . . .with notes, tags, lace, pockets, bits and pieces of things from friends, including some farmgirls. It's 8 1/2 inches tall and 4 inches wide, about 24 pages or so. It's just for my own treasure.
I don't do these with just whatever. I want them to mean something to the person I'm making it for, so the materials I use are more personal.

I also make cards, journals, and tags.
Recently I went through my bits and pieces of supplies left over from previous projects and made cards from those things.
These are just a couple of the ones I made. These cats just make me smile!

Joan, I love the wax seals! They make letters look so neat. I bet your pen pals enjoy them too.
Judith, hopefully your cats will start to cooperate with you so you can get your quilt finished. At least they love your quilt!

My UFO of the month is to finish a queen-size quilt I started 10+ years ago. I spent the last week on the quilting. I got up bright and early to put the binding on but the cats had other ideas.

I started doing wax seal stamps for pen pal mailings. It's a lot of fun. I love the different stamps they sell.

Sylvia, that owl towel is beautiful!
Linda, I do the same thing! Jumping from project to project helps me to not get burned out. If I get burned out on a project, then it takes me forever to get started again. All your projects sound fun!

Today I am working on a new quilt top, a quilted sweatshirt jacket, decorating and lengthening a denim skirt, and adding fabrics and slow stitching to a denim shirt. I jump from one project to another so I don't get bored. LOL!
I am trying to finish the skirt for our cruise.

Love the purple quilt and the owl towel! I am not getting anywhere near the amount of crafting time I thought I'd get this winter :( I'm going to have to schedule a sewing day!

Karen, your cards look so professional. If I was younger, I'd dive in, but have had to say no to beginning more crafts.
However, voila! My purple quilt is all done!

Karen, that is a really neat fun fact. I wonder why they chose to keep it a secret.
Heather, I agree! I love using them on many of my cards. So many of them are still unused.

That's a fun fact, Karen! I'm surprised they didn't sell the recipe.
