Today, I'm getting started on my January block for the Crazy Quilt Journal Project.
I love January. It's a quiet, reflective month for me. It's cold and gray and the days are short.
So for this month, I am inspired by January's palette...
And I have pulled together my palette of supplies into a collection box and I'm ready to start.
I'm a bit under the weather, running a slight fever and fearing a sinus infection.
We'll see how it goes...
And so I'm playing around with the concept of reflection...
And beginning to put the pieces together.
And this photo from camil tulcan's photostream on Flickr, I just love...
See you next time.
I look forward to seeing your progression on your crazy quilt journal project.
ReplyDeleteLove what you have gathered together for your quilt project. Whites and silvers just make a person mellow...unless it is seen through the windshield of a car! I love the snow and quiet of Winter too...but don't you just wish a little bit that June was closer???
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful palette! I can't wait to see what you create.
ReplyDeleteVery sorry about your Ravens. I really wanted them to win but at least it was a good game to watch! Both of my teams lost yesterday.
Seeing your inspirations and supplies for this makes me so excited to see it come together! Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI hope you are soon feeling much better.
ReplyDeleteYour collection for your cq journal project are wonderful. They are so soothing to my soul.

I think you approach every project you do as a work of art. No simple concepts. Elaborate components with perfect detail.
ReplyDeleteThis is gonna be good.

Oh how I love silver and sparkles! I think I am really going to enjoy this journey! And I love that last photo ~ how creative!
ReplyDeleteFeel better soon, Susan.
ReplyDeleteYour silver palette is so lovely!
How perfect for January... We have been snowed in for 5 days and my whole farm fits your palette. I just love it... The gray skies, white snow and sparkles everywhere in the ice... You captured it... Wish you felt better... Ger

ReplyDeleteooooooooo lovely goodies you have there, to put together ... hope you feel better soon :) love mouse xxxx
ReplyDeleteGet well soon. I sure the soft grey-pinks and grey-blues in your colour palette will be soothing for a slightly fragile state of mind!
ReplyDeleteI hope that the slight fever does not develope into anything more ... if it does then I hope your get well soon.
ReplyDeleteJanuary is not my favourite month but seeing it through your eyes, I could be persuaded differently :-)
I love the goodies that you have put into your collection box and am excited to see what you will do with them.
Oh so pretty! I am trying to enjoy the cold and winter grayness... this helps put it in perspective!
ReplyDeleteBe well Susan. Can't wait to see the block completed.
ReplyDeleteStunning palette - look forward to seeing your block....
ReplyDeleteGet well soon!
ReplyDeleteLooks like the wintery scene out our window for the past week. Should be a beautiful block, Susan. Hope you're feeling much, much better by now. Hugs! PS You sure created some lovely memories for your auntie!
ReplyDeleteI really like your silver palette. I have always thought of silver as being a cold color but these silvers have a warmth to them. They will make a beautiful block under your needle.
