Finding Inspiration in Quilting . . .

Have you noticed our weekly inspiration in the forum & on our Pinterest board??  This week was my chance to share one of my favorite forms of inspiration, quilts & quilted items.  While I rarely sew on fabric, I love to sew on paper :)  I chose this piece as my starting point for my layout using the NEW Lasting Love kit . . .

I loved the lines of this & the idea of a sort of "broken" chevron pattern.  I played around with my paper a bit to get the pattern working on my page & here is what I came up with . . .

As I have stated many times before, I LOVE playing around with title work on a page :)  Here I used a journaling tag from one of the patterned papers in the kit and added some of the AWESOME alphas from the Basic Grey alpha sheet.  I really liked the fonts on these!!  I added a date using the roller stamp from last month's kit, as well as a cute "love spell" sticker . . .



In this close-up you can see how I chose to sew between the strips of patterned paper.  I really like the overall quilted look it gave.  So may fun stickers, tags, and chipboard in tis kit.  So great for layering up!!



Thinking you might be interested in doing some paper quilting of your own???  Head over to our forum and Inspiration Mondays board to get those creative juices flowing!!!
