Home AGAIN!

This summer has been a trip! Literally!
It seems we would get back from one trip and hubby would be ready for the next!
I must be getting old because I needed some time between trips! LOL
Can you guess where I have been?

Maybe this one is better?  :-)

Just leave a guess, all names will go into the hat and the winner will get a little surprise in the mail. :-)

We had a great time!! I found a few quilt shops. :-)
Came home with a few things I don't know when I will get to make~ isn't that the way it goes?!
And I even had time for a bit of motorhome sewing. :-)
I can't show you what I made yet~ just a tease until the pattern is released. ;-)

Get those guesses in! Now that I am home, I hope to blog a little more regularly. ;-)
Until next time~
Happy Stitchin'!!

A Winner!

I actually have two winners to talk about today~
the contest winner (more on that later) and a 'winner' of a pattern! :-)

With back to school right around the corner, I recently had the pleasure of testing a book bag design by Shelly of The Grey Wren.
This was the first time I have tested a pattern for Shelly and I loved it! She tells you where she purchased her supplies and the cost, so you have a good idea what to look for and where to find it. :-)
She takes a lot of photos, so each step is easy to complete.
I made the Wren Elementary Sized book bag.~




 The bottom is faux leather, the main bag a decorator weight print and the inside a quilters cotton print.  I really like how it turned out. Shelly sells the pattern in her Etsy shop (link above) at a very good price!  

The next winner is the winner of my little guessing game in my last post.
It was Multnomah Falls in Oregon~ a really beautiful waterfall!! In fact, there were a lot of lovely falls just down the road from each other and DH and I had a lot of fun exploring each one.

I put all your names in the hat and DH drew for me~
the winner is .....

Congratulations!  If you can send me your snail mail address I will finish up your little prize this week. ;-) 

Until next time~
Happy Stitchin'!!


Time Flies!

Oh my goodness! I cannot believe it is the end of August!  Where have I been? Everywhere!  But recently welcoming this cutie has been the hi...
