This quilted journal was suppose to be
a heart shaped pot holder. Problem was the graph paper that I thought was 4 squares to and inch turned out to be 4 squares to 3/4″. So as I cut out and sewed together what I thought should have been 1″ squares my project grew to be too big for my hot pad template. And although I could have still cut it out the design would not have fit the way I had intended.
DD came home from school about this time. When I told her what I had done she said, “Be a problem solver” Something I tell her all the time. So I took the wise advice she had received from her very wise mother (hee, hee) and turned my problem into a solution.
I now have a fun quilted journal cover to keep or give as a gift.
Linking up with Sarah to celebrate this problem solved finish.
Good job as a problem solver – wise advice too!
Very nice journal cover -and a great way to solve the problem!! Whoop whoop!! And by the way, if you ever get that pot holder made, it's going to look fabulous!!
Great saying!
You did a great job!

Isn't great to find out that they do listen to what we have to say!
Beautiful pattern by the way.
A great design! This would be fun made up into a large quilt, too!
Que gran idea tubo usted con los triángulos!.
Diseño moderno si los hay.
Your project reminds me of the lines on a heart monitor.
