You probably know that I'...I love these so much! You probably know that I'm a big fan of a daily creative challenge. :) I really hope you stick with it! You could end up with a really impressive journal quilt this way!<br />If you end up finding that you're getting stuck coming up with ideas, it helps to add something to work around. "This will be a week of using red" or "stripes only" or whatever. I found that super helpful after the first couple of weeks because I started getting blank canvas syndrome. :)<br />As an interesting aside, when I first started my daily creative challenge, I found I didn't want to sew much because I was using my creativity already. (Of course you're already sewing, so maybe it's easier to do other sewing. :)) However, after a few [scary] months, the desire to sew came back and now I feel WAY more creative than I ever have in my life. I was chatting with some of the other QDAD long-termers last night and they agreed that they also felt more creative. So if you start getting worried that you're not doing anything else creative, don't worry, it passes. :) Or maybe that was just me and you won't have to go through that! <br />Um. Enjoy a novel of unsolicited advice.

I've been numbering mine even though I doubt they will even end up next to each other in the finished quilt. I wonder if Norma Slabbert's are in chronological order?<br /><br />I like that you are visually representing the events of the day. Your quilt will be a lovely collection of memories. :) Robynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08820223028251614341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3897344944533518603.post-15731146829275538302014-07-07T14:38:50.967+12:002014-07-07T14:38:50.967+12:00This is a great idea!
