Happy Birthday to me! Yes, today is the big day - I am looking forward to a fun day, a nice fat slice of German Chocolate Cake and some Ice Cream to go with it, plus phone calls from my girls :)
For this week I am giving away this cute animal panel by Clothworks - Friends in Wild Places:
There are two identical halves of the panel on one piece of yardage, so I though someone else would enjoy using the other half. My plan for this is to make journal covers out of them, so I am including that pattern as well.
I think I will make the panda version for myself! Anyway - to enter you will need to comment on my blog and let me know if you keep a journal now, or have you ever? I really enjoyed all the comments on the last giveaway and look forward to hearing your thoughts on this as well.

Be sure and share this with your friends! Thanks and good luck!
Yes I do, with all my projects, needles, threads, fabrics used,etc.
ReplyDeleteI take pictures and note on each one who the items were for. They are stored in my computer. That is as far as my journaling goes.
ReplyDeleteI have a quilting journal with lists of projects, fabrics needed and fabric collections that I have.
ReplyDeleteI have a journal where I list every project, with pictures, and fabrics and notions used to make them

ReplyDeleteI kept a journal as a teenager but have not done so for many years x
ReplyDeleteRight now I keep a sketch book. I don't write much and the sketch book is great for quilting and sewing sketches. I hate losing my project 'instructions'.
ReplyDeleteI am a lousy writer so I have never kept a journal.
ReplyDeletei keep one going all the time full of list
ReplyDeleteNo, I haven't kept a journal either as a young girl or an adult.
ReplyDeleteI grew up with 2 brothers so keeping a journal would have been a recipe for disaster when they found it! x
ReplyDeleteI've never kept a journal. I've started at different times but never carry through.

HELLO,yes I keep a Watercolor Sketch Journal!
ReplyDeleteI also keep a Loved Ones (our Family) running Journal!
A Journal does not need to have an entry every day to still be meaningful.
Thanks for sharing! msstitcher1214@gmail.com
I've kept journals and diaries before, but not lately. Happy Birthday! I hope your cake is delish!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was in high school my English teacher made us do it. I used to make stuff up to put in it because I couldn't think of anything to say. I don't think I would want anyone reading my personal feelings anyway.
ReplyDeleteI have blank books, I love blank books, I can't stop myself from buying blank books at the thrift store, but....I am really bad about writing in them. I do have a garden journal where I document what worked and didn't work for future plant purchases. I also have one for quilt ideas, I use it when I go on vacation, carpets and tiles, etc can be very intriguing.
ReplyDeleteI don't keep a journal. I have a couple of times in the past, mostly during large vacations where I wanted to remember what happened or when I was younger (think middle school age)
ReplyDeleteI haven't in years but maybe I will start again. Love all the creatures.
ReplyDeleteI don't keep a journal. This fabric is adorable! I would love it for a baby quilt, since I really enjoy making baby quilts and giving them to people with new babies.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday! I hope you have a fabulous day and enjoy that cake! it sounds so yummy. I do journal but not consistently as most my friends do. I would love to win this fabric - it is so cute. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI have sorta of a journal - it's list for my overcluttered mind - so i jot down ideas, things I think about and then try and work on them!
ReplyDeleteI do have a journal but I use it to record hi & lo temps, rainfall etc & what I did that day. I make columns down the page so 1 journal lasts 4-5 years. I love looking back on previous years to see what was going on!
ReplyDeleteI used to keep one until I decided I didn't want anyone to see it after I died. I do keep track of travel and what we did. Love looking back at our adventures. Rina
ReplyDeleteI kept journals thru my college years, but fell away later when the kids came...
ReplyDeleteI kept a journal right up until I had my first child. Now that they are just a bit older I was thinking of starting again. I wish I had kept doing it while they were babies to write down some of the memories.

ReplyDeletefor many years I have kept a journal when reading my Bible.
I did keep a journal while in high school, that is as long as it lasted
I don't currently keep a journal. I have done art journals in the past.
ReplyDeleteI kept a journal all through junior and senior high, but then stopped as I got older. Just this year I started one again, writing down the things I sew each day, because otherwise I forget what I did!
ReplyDeleteHope you had a great Birthday! I have enjoyed visiting your site, linked through the Island Hop:)
ReplyDeleteI keep a large art journal, it is rather untidy and filled with quilty ideas. I also keep a small sketch journal for travel, and a small journal with bloggish ideas, notes and lists that is also a mess as I tear pages from it a lot, haha!
