the unsuccessful journal quilt ...4

Actually, I think this is my favourite of them.  It somehow feels less sterile than the other three - perhaps due to the loopy machine quilting or that I stuck less rigidly to my prescribed shapes of rectangles, circles and triangles.

I'm glad they are finished. But I have learned lessons.  Much as I like playing with basic design, mixing that with journal quilts is not a happy combination for me! I hope the next colour is more exciting, I can't remember if it is to be blue or yellow, but either way, I can integrate it more into my main work, so hopefully it will be a more fruitful exercise!
