Quilting, Cross Stitch & Travel Adventures
Hello from Lake Tahoe my quilty friends! I arrived for a quilt retreat on Friday at Zephyr Cove Conference Center. The weather was forecasted to be cooler. Instead we have perfect 70’s weather with Sunday reaching a high of 81. It is just gorgeous. Love being feed 3 meals a day with no kitchen duty!
I plan to linkup with Carol at Quilt Schmilt for To Do Tuesday linkup.
Hello my Stitchy Friends! It has been another crazy busy week! Home only for a few days before heading off for my next trip. Just one more after this one and one class then I can settle into a nice rhythm for a month or two. (LOL!) 😂
Continue reading “Floss Friday #196”Just got back from a trip to Paducah, Kentuckly where I spent three days at the National Quilt Museum. The purpose of the trip was to catch the Tula Pink Exhibit before it ended on September 15th. I tired really hard to miss the hot and humid summer weather in Kentucky. Total fail! It was HOT 🥵 all five days with a 95% humidity and mid 90’s each day. It was like walking in a sauna each day. The weather was very sapping. But I was grateful it wasn’t raining too as originally predicted. Take the win when you get it!
I was so excited to get to the museum and get my first glimpse of the Tula Pink Exhibit. Once I got there, I was pleasantly surprised to find the museum was bigger than I was thinking (but not too big). I made a decision immediately to just focus on Tula the first visit. I ended up getting a membership (plus it supports the museum) and come back for the next 2 days to catch he other exhibits and view again any part of the Tula quilts I needed more time with.

I have a lot to share today as I forgot to share the September WIPGO last time I posted in August. Which means this is my first time posting in September where I share the results of August WIPGO. I am going to tackle these first.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #195”Welcome back my quilty friends! I was not sure if I would be sharing today as I did not expect to have any quilting time. I went to a cross stitch retreat and got back Sunday. Ended up my guild had a special Sit n Sew Zoom on Labor Day. I spent the whole day in my studio!
It has been a minute my quilty friends. Just to give you a heads up, the next 6 weeks is going to be crazy. I am gone as much as I am home. Hopefully I will get to share some of what I am doing with all of you.
I plan to linkup with Carol at Quilt Schmilt for To Do Tuesday.
Continue reading “To Do Tuesday #194”Hello Stitchy Friends! Last post of August. Can you believe it! The week has gone by quickly. As usual, my expectations were much higher than my time to complete those expectations. But I made a nice dent. So let’s take a look at this week’s projects.
One! Just one new start with plans for so many more. LOL! My grandiose plans 🙄 have not come to fruitation this month. Yet, I can’t regret being an optimist. So let’s take a look at what I did get started.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #194”Hello Stitchy Friends! Wow! Summer is just zooming by. I can’t believe we are already down to just a week and a bit left of August. Then we will be into all. I hope you have had a great summer.
I did have a finish this week, but no new starts. I have a list of five things I wanted to start this month. This next week, I had better jump on that!
Continue reading “Floss Friday #193”Welcome back Quilty Friends! This week has been another busy week (surprise!) A couple of trips over the river to one of my local quilt stores. Once to pick up my machine for a Workshop on Saturday. Then again yesterday to pick up a foot for my machine that I had ordered but wasn’t there yet. Last Thursday was a quilt guild meeting. Sunday ended up being just a reading day to unwind from a crazy week.
I plan to link up with Carol @ Quilt Schmilt for To Do Tuesday Linkup.
