Textile Junk Journals

Following on from the fabulous James workshop I went to in July, I made a couple of gifts in the same manner. I've called it a junk journal as it has loads of junk (recycled stuff) inside.

This is the back cover.

This is the inside front cover and the first page.

And the inside of the back cover and the last page.

And this is the second one I made.

And the back cover.

This is the inside of the back cover.

And finally, the inside of the front cover and the first page.

Love how the windows have stacked up

The TM girls images

Love the ragged edge of this page

Another TM girl sewn over the envelope window

The fabric on this page has been stitched on all four sides

And from the top

I also treated myself to a couple of stamps

And this is a gorgeous gift that I was given by Lin and Chris. The decoration is felted and the little tag to match is superb. Want to have a go at this myself.

This was the fab bag I was given the above fab bag in, together with a little pack of vintage embellishments. Thanks ladies, much appreciated.
