Slow stitched pocket textile journal to keep your memories - a treasure


I slow stitched a tiny textile journal


I used button and beads, very intuitive


"Your inner knowing is your only true compass." — Joy Page



"Intuition is the whisper of the soul." — Jiddu Krishnamurti



"Follow your inner moonlight; don't hide the madness." — Allen Ginsberg


It is a very nice place to keep all bits and bobs you have in drawers, that you never would use elsewhere. A treasure


Its raggerdy and not very tidy, just the
way I like it.


Slow stiched card. I used a playingcard as the base. I guess
that tells a bit the size of the journal


In the beginning I called it ugly art, but now I really like it.


It is so relaxing, you should try it. Remember, the
mind is the limit, so dont limit yourself. 

"Intuition is a very powerful thing, more powerful than intellect." — Steve Jobs

"Listen to your intuition. It will tell you everything you need to know." — Anthony J. D'Angelo
