My new year starts when the last trip of the year is over. Which is now. Today, actually.
Happy New Year!
I love everything about New Year, especially a new planner. I'm a Bullet Journal fan, so I make my own planner. I bought blank notebooks online and each becomes whatever I need it to be. Blank notebooks are boring and I'm a quilter, so I made my own planner cover when I was under the weather last week. Want to see it?
Yes, I'm teasing. I pulled out five different FabuLux threads and started playing with my Handi Quilter Stitch 510 machine. This is the first time I ever converted the foot and plate for free-motion quilting. Why did I wait so long???
I quilted the entire outside cover like this:
These circles were inspired by a garment stitched by the incomparable Gilbert Muniz.
I stitched the cover:
While I'm always happen when using my planner, I think this cover is going to make me even happier!
Did you know that there is a sampler pack of the threads that I used in this project? Check them out HERE.
If you want to know more about bullet journaling, Dot Journaling is a good book to read to get started.
I also found someone's blog post about what they wish they knew before they started their bullet journal. Read it HERE.
Happy New Year and Happy Journaling!

Wow, I agree that just looking at that cover would make a person happy! So gorgeous!
I'm working on setting up my bullet journal for 2019 as well. Problem with having ADHD is that I bounce all over the place. Productivity is tough, the older I get. But I'm not giving up.
I didn't realize the difference in our ages! Never mind what my age is :-)
Sorry I missed your FB live today. I did watch the replay. I picked up the big board top from TNT a few years ago at MQX. Mike uses it more than I do!
