I have a frosty fella on my mind and his name is Mr. Snow.
Welcome, dear friends.
Last year I began working on the sashings on my Mr. Snow quilt, but at some point I set it aside and Mr. Snow became a UFO. ❆❅☃ Bless his chilly heart. 💙💙
Well, my Mr. Snow blocks jumped in the camper with full intentions of me working on them further as I enjoyed the warmer weather .
Eeeeh it was in the 80's yesterday! How nice!
In the past, I had been adding sashing to 2 Mr. Snow blocks a week. That way I could slowly enjoy the project, and it not interfere with other things going on .
Anywhooo, Mr. Snow insisted that I work on 2 more blocks this week.
Mr. Snow was a QAL that I shared in 2023-2024.
8 blocks complete. Four more to sash!
Mr. Pinker and I will be hitching our wagon and chugging on to the next campsite today.
Oh boy, is our little truck camper is a mess when we travel . I have to put my stash of fabrics, threads and sewing machine on the beds so they are not strewn about as we travel the bumpy roads.

| Bye Bye sweet campsite. I may see you again here soon. |
It took an hour to drive to the campsite that we were at . The roads were washboard so we took it slow and easy. But it was worth the drive. It is one of our favorite spots. Fingers crossed we will be able to get our next favorite spot at our new destination.
As Always...
Happy Quilting and Stitching, y'all!

ReplyDeleteLoving the snowmen - so stinkin' cute. It's been awhile since I've done any hand embroidery. My hands have been x-stitching like my hair's on fire. LOL Be careful and enjoy the desert plants and such. Looks like my neck of the woods. Big Hugs, DarleneJ
ReplyDeleteBeautiful embroidery that brings joy. Keeping up to take advantage of every stop and rest on the journey to add a few stitches.

I love the scrappy borders. The snowmen are so cute. The area looks peaceful and the perfect place to explore or just relax and sew. Have a great time. Alicia
