I am so glad to be able to share this today. I posted a while back about the basket quilt top I created for our in-town retreat. And this is what we did with it.
The flowers, butterflies, and bees were signed and added by the retreat attendees. One of our Thursday stitchers took it home and quilted it so I can hang in our stitching room. It turned out awesome!!!
DH and I started our annual motorhome trip to Michigan on the 14th. Four driving days with no stitchin.
But we got to see our little family from Kentucky on the way. We actually boondocked on their farm.
Arrived at my sister's camp after an uneventful trip, for which I am very thankful.
On our first trip to town, we saw deer, turkeys and an eagle. Deer and turkeys are pretty common, but the eagle was a treat. And I never have my camera ready.
I have an agreement with my sister when we come to visit. I buy the groceries and she does the cooking. It works for both of us. And we eat out twice a week, sometimes more.
On Fridays they eat at the same restaurant and when we are here, we enjoy it also. It's called Rainbow Garden, and it is in the middle of NOWHERE!! The food is delicious.
We eat Mexican weekly also.
Then the weather turned. It got HOT!! Since we share power with my sister (they have a 5th wheel), we can't run a/c without running the generator and then we end up in our separate spaces and don't get to visit so we go to town (30 minutes away) to their house. I didn't bring my sewing machine to town, so no sewing has happened. Who knew we would be in town for 10 days. We still have about 4 more days in town before the weather is supposed to break.
Here are a couple more pictures before I end this post.
Have you ever seen a view like this from a Walmart parking lot before?
And finally, I don't think I would ever get used to this. It's bedtime and check out the sky.
Being on the western side of the eastern time zone, the sun doesn't set until after 9pm.
Until next time, wishing you more stitchin time than I will have.

Looks like a great trip and what beautiful farmland. Do I spy margaritas on the Mexican table - yum! That Walmart view is spectacular. The basket quilt is so pretty.
