Underfoot

Inspiration from the pavement - some of it might fuel my "gridded" journal quilts; most of it is a bit of a patchwork. Layers of history, even.










Some bits of pavement have a story - for instance, the curb stones indicate that there was once a cobbled area of pavement, perhaps a driveway or rather carriageway (as in the photo above) -
Other curbstones have mason's marks - a chiseled initial, or something more mysterious.

I have always wondered what the zig zag pavement markings indicate. I Use to watch Top Gear with Clarkson, Hammond, and May and always saw those when they were driving in the U.K.

I can see you could get lots of ideas for your journal pieces from these photos.
