Journal Cover



Each year our guild has a President's Challenge, where the President makes up a contest for all members to compete in. This year, it was to make something useful out of 'strings'.

I didn't even know what a string was, but have since learned it is your leftover fabric that is 2" or less in diameter.

I made a journal cover with my 'strings'. I just laid them directly onto the batting and quilted them down. Then I serged the edges and tacked on some ricrac for the closure. Fast and fun.
