New Sewing Themed Junque Journal

I have a new Junk ("Junque") Journal to show you.

This one took me a long time. It has a lot of vintage lace

and ephemera and even some old patterns included.

It's for sale in my Etsy store.

 Lots of pockets and tags!

Hope you enjoyed looking at my journal.

Love, Linda

So Short Summer!

Gabe here!

Mom is grousing about summer being too short.

I like summer because we relax on the porch and watch mom

work in the garden.

And eat cookies.

 Here are some photos of our garden this summer.
There is a little fence around so I can't go in.
If I stick my head in, sometimes I scare a bunny though.

Here is Patty playing poker with our neighbor, Brandon.
She wins a lot.

And of course, I am still as handsome as ever!
I was 9 years old on August 26th.

 Everybody loves me!

Love, Gabe

New Junque Journals

Here's what I've been up to lately

making Junk Journals

 These are hard cover books that have been taken apart, then covered with fabric

and filled with tea and coffee dyed pages, as well as lots of pockets and

tuck spots to fill with tags and ephemera.

 The cover has been embellished with vintage lace and an antiqued collage

of images, poetry and a metal pin.

 Shown are a few of the tuck spots with some tags I created using lace,

buttons and old book pages and old music paper.

 I did a lot of sewing in this book as well.

Hope you liked this peek of my newest project.

It's for sale in my Etsy store.
