A RAINY DAY IN THE CAMPER


It was a rainy day yesterday and we decided not to travel, so I got my sewing "room" set up.  Just like your sewing room, I have various "stations" for different activities.

Ironing station on kitchen counter.

Cutting station on pull-up shelf by sink.

Sewing station on my side of the table - DH is using the computer on his side.

Design "chair"

You can "make do" when you have to!  I pulled out my 1 1/2" strips and some other scraps to put together another doll quilt.  I didn't have enough pink for the alternating blocks, but I got most of it put together.  I will be concentrating more on hand work until we get home because I guess I didn't bring enough projects on this trip.  

Today we head south to Massachusetts!

  1. What a great set up you have there! We like to camp, but I've never taken my machine, always just hand work. Your little project looks great!

  5. I love this and remember each and every space. If you are visiting a quilt shop in Mass. you can always pick up another little project (like you really need another one, LOL)!

  11. I just found your blog a few days ago. I didnt realize you were in a camper. How kool is that ! I asked my hubby if we could do that but we dont have the resources . So it is still a wish , a dream..I can imagine being cozy in the camper well covered outside and in. Sewing and maybe watching a few movies on my laptop . Videos mostly. Then moving right along , not having to stay in one place all the time. Ive done that for too long..When I was a kid we didnt stay put more than a yr. Love diggs for your quilting. Enjoy your trip. Id love to go to Hyannis and nantucket if I were in Mass.

  13. Such creative use of your space, but what I like best is that you and your husband can work on opposite sides of a table. Great togetherness.

  14. You just nixed another excuse not to quilt that I hear a lot, "I don't have room to quilt." Where there is a will, there is a way. Enjoy your time on the road and your quilting. Love the beginnings of your doll quilt!
