Art Journal Page 12/09/14 - 1 Bird, 2 Bird

I have been utterly inspired lately by quilts. Paper piecing is very similar to quilting, so you can see how I'd be drawn to quilts (even though I'm not a quilter myself).

I have this lovely quilt from Jodi at Pleasant Home and I LOVE it!! As I was hanging it up this year for Christmas I decided to make a little paper bird inspired by the quilt. And then I decided that that bird needed a little friend. And that's how this page was born.

Here's the full page spread with a page I did back in November. I didn't bother trying to connect the two pages today. I'm nearing the end of this Art Journal so I'm sort of just fitting things in where I can and this page already had a bit of blue paint for the sky so I went with it.
