Wilderness Bits Journal Cover
Categories: Utility, Gifts
When travelling I like to purchase fabric to remind me of my journey. I had heard stories of the wonderful array of quilt stores in Alaska and was on a budget so the first store I went into in Seward, Alaska I decided I needed to be somewhat restrained. I fell in love with all of the batiks and wanted to purchase yardage of each and every one of them. I am proud to say that I managed to keep to the plan when I found a package of end cuts that cost me under $10. It contained just as advertised, bits and pieces of a wide variety of batiks. I could not wait to get home and get started. Originally it was going to be something for our travel trailer and then I decided what I really wanted was a journal cover to record our upcoming adventures. Just in case you would like to make one of your own I have detailed instructions and diagrams to help you on your journey.
