  • Another set of pages can include:

  • Another set of pages can include:
NOTES ABOUT THE QUILTING PROCESS
Here you can put details about the process. 
Whether it was easy or hard to put together, if you had issues with following the pattern and changes you may have had to make. 
Things you learned during the process such as new techniques, things you found you like to do or don't like to do. 
Notes of things that were going on in your life at the time of making the quilt.

  • The next set of pages you can add pieces of the actual fabrics that you used.
HAPPY QUILTING!
