Keeping a Night Journal

Just in case anyone wanted to know what exactly makes up a night journal, I thought I’d write an entry about the topic.

Quilting & Patchwork Journal

Mary Emma Allen has some great thoughts on keeping a Quilting & Patchwork journal on her excellent blog. If you wanted to make a really memorable journal for this you could make your own & give it a gorgeous mini quilted cover.

Bible Diary

After receiving our mail today hubby was reading out items of interest from a Christian bookstore catalogue. He misread something as ‘bible diary’ and I couldn’t help feeling interested. When I investigated I was a little disappointed that they did not in fact have a bible diary, but it got me thinking there must be […]

A Junk Journal?

I didn’t miss this entry on the Junk Creation blog by Joshua Johnson. The title caught my eye and my mind started ticking over with possibilities before I actually read the entry.
