A journal marks the passage of time.  This "Patchwork Journal" will allow you to easily show the passing of each month throughout the year.  A large foundation quilt is made, then each month has four quilt patches which are buttoned on to the foundation quilt.  The size of the foundation quilt is 48" x 62" and the patches measure 4" x 18", 3" x 22", 12" x 16, and 11" x 15".
