January's Portland Art Collective giveaway is a fabric journal made by Cynthia Mooney. The cover ties together and is held by a red button.
Scraps of colorful fabrics are sewn together in quilt-fashion with additional fabric appliques. All are free-motion stitched in place.
The inside cover is just as pretty with Lenox printer's paper signatures. The giveaway includes one of her mini-palettes full of watercolor paints.
Those interested in keeping a journal may want to take one of Cynthia's journal making classes. She also teaches journaling techniques. You can see more of her work on her blog Here. To win this beautiful journal, comment on this post. Winners will be notified the end of January.

A sweet little journal and artist's pallette of colors...what more could a girl ask for. Please put my name in the hat.

This is just so special and beautiful. I also went and read some of her blog posts. What an interesting life she has.

My fingers are itching to put the journal to good use.

Love the attention to detailing on the journal - how very beautifully done. Did you use Fimo for the watercolor wells? Cute idea!
What a gorgeous journal! Love the little tin of watercolours. Good luck to everyone!
Big squishy hugs!
Beautiful journal... makes me think of spring flowers. What a neat bonus of the watercolor tin. I would love to win this one!
The journal is absolutely stunning...it makes a non-journaler like myself WANT to journal - and to have it sitting out to look at. What creative genius!

Beautiful! The lavender fabric looks watercolored!! Thanks for the chance!
Add brush, will travel. Now there are no excuses not to create, everything is there at your fingertips, and beautifully, I might add! If only you could wear it on a chain.
Beautiful! And really like the idea of the little paint kit.
Thanks for the chance.
This is so yummy!
I love your journal - it's to plush. I would love to own it.
I LOVE this book. Cynthia's classes are super ,.......she is a wonderful teacher! Marcy
Great color combinations...

ooooo! What a fun little journal with some of my favorite Kaffe Fassett fabrics. I loved the journal we made in your Art and Soul workshop several years ago and wish you would instruct there again! Now you have branched out into fabric. It really sounds like your Portland art group is a very fine experience.
Delicious fabric journal and clever w/c tin -- cool!
Wow, beautiful book with water color set - would love to win! Great colors of fabric n button.
Thanks,
The book looks wonderful and who wouldn't want to win it? But what really caught my eye was the watercolour tin ... what's the stuff in the bottom and how can I make one? Both inspiring!
Beautiful art book and fun mini paint set - would love to use it! Thanks!
It's a beautiful journal.
Two things I love to include in my art work is texture and color.... this journal fits the bill perfectly. The travel paintbox is so clever! I have just begun to journal and would love to do some painting and writing in this one.
Yes, it is so clever. I MUST have. (grin) Pick me, pick me, please. :)
It's my Birthday and I want to win this beautiful journal.
