Peaceful Days at Camp

I am enjoying some lazy quiet days at camp! 

 

Good afternoon y'all and Happy Happy Thursday. I hope your week has been treating you well. 

A stitchy spot near the shade. 

Mr. Pinker and I have been enjoying the warm weather, mild breezes and sunshine these last few days. In fact, we have been running around amuck in shorts and short sleeves - quite a change from back home. 

Aaw and what beautiful scenery - a delight and feast for our eyes. 

  

To say the least, I am one Happy Camper especially since this is taking place! Eeeeh I am putting "Pretty in Peaches" in the hoop!

 Once we took the side by side off of the trailer, I had a fabulous area to stretch out the backing, batting and quilt. Time to smooth it out! 

It will not be long before I wrangle the quilt in the hoop and begin weaving my needle and thread around the little butterflies. I think the black butterfly will be first.  ( I bought a new iron while in town to give this beauty a good pressing- I need to do that . 😊) 

For my Embroidery Thursday stitch- well, I will continue working on "The Garden is My Home" which I shared as a freebie doodle last year in my July 8th post. 

I hope you are enjoying some peaceful days.  

I do apologize for not being able to visit as much as I would like. Some of you may remember that we are off grid relying on solar power so my internet time is down to a minimum. I will be back for regular visits shortly. Love ya'! 

As Always...

Happy  Stitching and Quilting,

 y'all
