Oh Ali would love to see you’re fabric journal, I know you are busy at the moment in the garden, doing icads and tags. Croydon is such a large town but we have some lovely green spaces.

[@janetnash]

Oh Adele thank you so much, how thoughtful of you, I love to include things that people send me, it just gives my journals such a loving vibe. What’s on you’re table at the moment ?

[@SylviaD]

Oh my !!! what a gorgeous journal !!! i can feel lots of love inside and that makes it more precious ;) and Janet, guess what ? i always dreamt about making a fabric journal (since i'm 8 years old and know how to stitch) ... after making the owls, i think i'm going to make a fabric and slow stitch journal this autumn & winter... full of cozy fabrics and yarn, and buttons.... thank you soo much for all the inspirations & ideas💕💕 i think,thanks to you, one of my oldest dreams will come true this year ;) enjoy the beautiful rose garden & happy stitchin' ;) love for you and cuddles to freddie 💕

[@janetnash]

Sylvia you have warmed my heart, oh yes go for it. I have no idea how I am going to bind it and the pages are all different types of fabric but I am just enjoying it so much. Yes autumn / winter theme would be so cosy what a good idea. Happy Stitchin to you too. Freddie sends a hug.

[@hotthreadssd]

Beautiful book. Lovely work and use of color and textures. We don’t have public gardens in my area. So nice you have them available in the city. Love how you included my no scraps left behind. 💕🎨💕

[@janetnash]

So glad you came to the garden with us. I absolutely love you’re ‘ no scraps left behind ‘

Do you have a video where you show the “blank” square you start with for the slow stitching before you add on all the bits and bobs

[@janetnash]

Hi Mel, does this video help ? shows a piece from the beginning, sewing onto the backing ? kzbin.info/www/bejne/fGK0eo2njsuFa8k Let me know if you have more questions 😊

Did you use base pages to make the journal first then add your fabrics on?

[@janetnash]

I did Kelly, on Tuesday I have a video coming out of me making a fabric journal, it may help. 🧵
