Going on Vacation!!!

We love to go on vacation to Florida and just happens to be the weekend of the Players PGA Tournament. Can't wait to relax and enjoy. Will be coming home sewing up a storm for the next show. Lots of vintage dresses to be made and a couple of baby quilts. Talk to ya soon.

We stayed longer and had a blast!

We had the best time in St. Augustine, Florida, but so glad to be home. The picture above was an old quilt on a bed in one of the museums we visited. Being the oldest town in the United States we had a lot of exploring to do.

This is the oldest wooden school house.

On our trolley ride we passed some beautiful Churches.

We went on a ghost tour at night and had some fun listening to old stories being told, of course I had to snap some pictures to see if they would show up.

One of the houses that had a wonderful story being told by these two. He told her she was frugal buying the iron toaster she was showing him.



I'm working on my item for this huge giveaway being held on Monday so I need to empty my camera to show some sneak peeks. Maybe tomorrow. Be sure and read all about it here.

I've been away, but just had to bring my machines

We took another little week vacation and it's only about a hour away from our house. Short but sweet. My husband and son fished in the McDonald's fishing tournament, with no luck, but he did get some golf in. We had a condo looking over the golf course so I got to snap a picture of him on the hole near by and then the camera died. I had plans on showing you what I had made. One Easter dress down (check), one order (check) and the most fun was starting my log cabin for me. Yea! Can't wait to get this one finished.

We just got home today, so I'm charging the battery and will be back with some photo's after one more Easter dress and an apron order is finished.

Hope you get to spend this weekend with the one's you love and have a Happy Easter. Surprise just might be hopping your way.

Blessings to all.

Vacation starts tomorrow!!!

Mr. Calamity and I are heading off for a little R & R starting tomorrow. Not for, but we'll have a condo in the woods and fishing and golf close by for the better half and lots of sewing and shopping for me. Can't wait. Be back after Halloween, so wishing you all a spooktackular Halloween. Hope to post when I get back, but you know what week follows and that is the Quilt Festival in Houston. Do you see me doing a happy dance...

See ya' soon,

Bonnie

"New Update"--So good to be Home, but I've had a blast!!!

Update-" This is an update added to my post, I love the magazine American Patchwork & Quilting by Better Homes and Gardens and needing a fast quilt to be finished within a month and going on vacation it had to be something quick and easy. My new magazine arrived and I saw this one. Grabbed 18 fat quarters off the shelf and adjusted the border and only 3 squares across and 3 down. It really turned out to be a big quilt."

Hi everyone, I've missed all of you and can't wait to catch up on all the excitement out in blog land. We got back from our vacation and then I headed out to a quilt retreat with good friends. I'll post pictures soon of all the sewing that was done. It does a body good to have laughter and sewing all in one place.

The picture at the very top is a quilt I made that had to be finished for this weekend. It is for a raffle for someone very sick and I hope it will bring in funds needed for him and his family.

The pictures below are from our vacation and the retreat I went to. I'll give out all the information in my next post, the ladies that run this one are so nice and talk about good food...
