This piece was already fused and just needed the rows sewn. It is larger than the rest of the journals. This one is 15" by 21"---small wall hanging or place mat, maybe? I had to really piece a lot of left over binding strips together to get enough to finish this off. The good news: My bag of scrap bindings is almost empty.... only short pieces left. So "watercolor" this one done.
Got any journal quilt ideas? I have a few more technique ideas to try----circles (which I usually avoid), using photographs, collage fused, just strings and strips, painted or stamped---and I'm open to more.
Please share your ideas with me, as they may give me a light bulb moment....happy stitching.

I'm always searching for an idea too, right up to the last minute. I did colorwash this week too, will post tomorrow morning. I think using up our leftovers is a good idea. Mine incorporates a sample I used when I taught the classes. I hate to throw them away, and I don't want to make potholders out of them, LOL!
