The Quilt Before
My renaissance man has been busy creating again. I told you he could make anything. Everything from sewing a bag to building a house. It really doesn't matter. I am so blessed. I found this little velour crazy quilt at Salvation Army about a month ago for $3. I told Troy I wanted to make an art journaling bag for times you journal "on the go". I just loved the colors in this quilt. He said, "Can I make it for you?" I wasn't going to argue with him. Honestly, he sews way better than I do. He used some black velour fabric leftover from making Maisie's Harry Potter Halloween Costume cape for the sides.
The Creative Process
So, this was my Valentine's Day present. It's perfect! I love it so much. I will treasure it.

It comes complete with an outside zipper pocket.
