Hitching up the Wagon

           On the road again  

           Goin' places that I never been

           Seein things that I may never see again 

          And I  can't wait to be on the road again...- Willie Nelson

           

A big hello to you my friends. I bet you have guessed it!  

The wide open roads are calling my name so Mr. Pinker and I are heading out on a 10 day  camping adventure!   

We will be taking our truck camper out on her maiden voyage so it will be very interesting to learn the ins and out of it. Normally, Mr. Pinker and I wait until the weather heats up nice and hot πŸ˜€ before we head toward the desert🌞🌡, but we are heading out a little early this year. We  will be traversing the trails  in Oklahoma, Colorado and New Mexico or wherever  the open road may take us. These two  wanderlusts  do not have a plan other than seek grand adventures and see all that we can .

  If I have the opportunity, I may pop in to say howdy, but normally we are in very desolate areas where there is little to no service . 

 I hope that rest of the month of May will be fabulous for you and may your days be filled with all of the stitching and quilting your heart desires. 

Happy quilting and stitching, ya'll

Happy Mother's Day

Good morning and Happy Mother's Day  to all of the dear mothers out there. It is your special day. ❤πŸ€—

 I have a gift bag choked full with bee decor items and Pioneer Woman pieces for my mom. I  will be taking it to her very soon. This is her 2nd year decorating with the  bee theme  and she loves Pioneer Woman decor . 

What do you have on the agenda?  I plan to spend the day with my family. Nothing fancy this year just pizza and  maybe a sweet treat. Later , the grandchildren and nephews will go fishing or swimming which is always a delight to watch. 

 

In the evening, I hope to add binding to my newest mini quilt finish. I appliqued this mini basket quilt last year and just finished the quilting.  It holds a special place in my heart because the yellow floral fabric was from a dress of my  youngest daughter. I say she was about 2 years old when she wore it. πŸ’›πŸ˜€


 I will also continue pulling out patriotic decor. 


Well Sweeties, this is another short and sweet post. Have a very blessed day and ...


As always...

Happy  Stitching and Quilting, ya'll
