We are headed out of town! 🎼🎵🎶 My bags are packed, I'm ready to go! 🎶🎵
Over the years I've made quite a few quilted zipper pouches that I use for various purposes when we travel. The different sizes and shapes are really handy.
Here's a little hint about our destination. I'm sooo looking forward to it!
A little sewing has been accomplished. I've been trying to make some quilting progress on Patchwork Hearts. Row 2 of 5 is almost finished.
Angela called for light blues and greens for the September Rainbow Scrap Challenge color of the month. So I got out my previously made blue and green quarter star blocks. I can definitely make more of these in greens and blues.
I'll share more about these when we are home again next week.
I've packed a project bag for my suitcase with the fall embroidery in it. If there's some evening downtime, I'll pull it out and put in a few stitches.
I love being able to travel in the fall - so thankful to be retired and have the time to go to a favorite destination! LeeAnna's question of the week is about starting school as kids - did we get new school clothes and what was that like? My mom sewed everything we kids wore, and I remember how fun it was to go to the fabric store and pick out the pattern and the fabric for something new to begin school. Girls always wore dresses back in those days and I think my mom sewed lots of jumpers for us. A really big memory is that I always had to wear saddle shoes - and I hated them! (They were not in style :) Their support was supposed to be better for my flat feet, but I thought they were so ugly!
Looking at them now, I don't think I'd mind having a pair.
Lol!
