Day 5

I know I missed day 4, but we were so tired last night we crashed.  Today was Vermont, and Maine.  We did stop at Keepsake Quilts and got some goodies and then spent the day in the mountains.  For dinner tonite we had pulled pork and beer at a place in Freeport, ME called Gritty’s. Continue reading “Day 5”

Day 3

Got to Gettysburg, PA early and spent 4 hours  driving around the battle field.  Seeing all these markers, cannons, and reading about each person makes you FEEL the history and understand more the agony, sadness, and the passion each side fought for.  It is so different seeing places like this than reading about it inContinue reading “Day 3”

Day 2

Day 1

Got up early this morning and was on the road by 3:30am Central time.  We had lunch in Cloverleaf, Indiana.  We enjoyed a wonderful hamburger and hand dipped onion rings.  The burger was open flamed grilled and so good.  Then drove to Indianapolis, Indiana at Quilt Plus and visited her.  This was a modern quiltContinue reading “Day 1”

Craft Fair

We are enjoying music, the smells of funnel cake, kettle corn, and so much more.  It’s a little hot right now, but nice breeze. Alicia had shirts made for us.  I love them.

Tried something new

I have been making peanut and pecan brittles and decided to make something a little special for Alicia’s good friend.  She and her family have been adopted by us and we love them to pieces.  For her hubby I made peanut/rum brittle.  I know the alcohol cooks down so I used only a 1/4 cupContinue reading “Tried something new”

Starting new project

I have been getting ready for our vacation that is in 3 days.  I have made my lists and have the important things lined up.  Clothes, list of Quilt Shops, and a hand applique project ready for the time in the car.  The rest will come together and that is good. I found a cuteContinue reading “Starting new project”

Am in a rut

I find that lately I am in a rut.  I started my sewing in clothes as a young girl.  We sewed our own clothes and this is what I did for years and years.  I would push myself in looking at fabric and seeing a blouse, dress, or slacks and would make it.  Sometimes itContinue reading “Am in a rut”

Time to get serious

I have been patting myself on the back for being organized and ahead of schedule being ready for the craft fair and then vacation.  Yesterday I made 6 lbs of pecan brittle and feeling pretty proud of myself.  I will never do this again, being over confident.  Lady down the street brought down a babyContinue reading “Time to get serious”

Visiting New England States

We will be taking off to the New England states in a few weeks.  While Hubby is planning our route and things to see, I am planning the quilt shops to visit.  I just wish he would see to letting me take my sewing machine with us,  but that is a little too much.  WhileContinue reading “Visiting New England States”
