In the crazy quilt of life, I'm glad you're in my block of friends.

Today's giveaway is this super cute Quilt Journal {don't look too closely — my quilting is wonky, none of my centers match and I pieced the black pinwheels wrong and ended up cutting off all the points on them. I'm going with, I meant to do that.} I used the Double Pinwheel String Quilt tutorial by P. over at The Way I Sew It. She did an absolutely beautiful job on her quilt and I wanted something pretty like that to carry around with me and collect ideas in for my quilt projects. There are clever quilting quotes, dividers for keeping track of things in different categories, 40 blank pages and 10 double-sided graph paper pages for ideas and notes and designs {click on the photo for a closer look}.
