CAMPING IN MAINE

We arrived in Maine a few days ago and we're camping near Phippsburg where the weather has been gorgeous all week

View of campground from our camper

We haven't seen a moose yet, but we've seen chipmunks!  They play on the stone wall next to our camper.

Stone walls abound in New England

Pond in the campground that I enjoy walking to.

The Atlantic Coastline on Bailey Island.

Fishing village on Bailey Island.

Another view of the bay on Bailey Island.

I have also been working on some projects inside the camper using my sewing machine - nothing to show yet.  We have been away from home a month now and will probably head home in a couple weeks.  Our last week will be spent in Massachusetts.

HAND PIECING IN CAR

I don't claim to get as much quilting done as some people, but I have been asked how I do get so much done. As others have also said, I have "take it with me" projects. I have my Howdy Doody lunch box ready to go. We have a 35 minute drive to church, so I have been working piecing my tumbler table runner along the way. Note: pictures taken in driveway. Hee Hee!
I'm making it for our coffee table to go along with the tumbler wall hanging that I am hand quilting. They are both charm quilts made with mostly reproduction fabrics. I'm not on any timetable - they will be finished when they are finished!
I bought this book at the quilt show yesterday. I really like the projects in it and the applique looks pretty easy and can be done on the machine. I don't really think I'll do anything from it this year, but I really like the card holder on the right side of the front cover above.


Now I'm off to work on some BOMs. I need to get them going - I don't want to get too far behind on them!
