spider webs and paint.

I made one more block for my 'spider web' quilt top. Hahaha, I know, this is going to take me forever. And I want it big enough to cover our queen size bed. But I am not giving up on it.

I did a little painting this weekend. My girl friend wanted me to paint over a sign she had ( the old sign said " Home Sweet Home" . She is my camping buddy , so she wanted something to do with camping on it.

And Jonah is much much better!! Thank you all for the kinds words, prayers, and good vibes sent this way!!!

So, here is the binding seletion. I didn't go with the multi color one, it was just too wild for me. I went to buy the same white dots on back , but ended up with a different one, which I think looks good. The binding is sewn to the front, but not stitched to the back yet. I'll be working on that this week. When it's done, I'll take a big 'ol photo of the whole thing.

Here is my 2nd block in the MissyMack BOM . Called 'Stingbark farm" . I can 't wait for the 3rd one to come out. MissyMack hasn't been feeling very good, I hope she is doing much better. Sending out a big ((((((HUG)))))) to her.

I finished 2 stitcherys in the "camping" quilt . The pattern is a "Bareroots" pattern. #99 Camping Quilt and Pattern. I actually stitched the duck while sitting by the campfire camping. The fabric still smells like campfire, one of my favorite smells.

I finished this one at our 'young people's sit and stitch' last night.

I am in a on-line swap quilting group called "sew connected 3". Here are my blocks from all my wonderful swaping group. There are 18 of us. I think ( pretty sure) I will be sashing it in black and backing it with black. It is going to be a picnic quilt for us to go to the park with. :o)

And Basil, my littlest baby thinking he can go down the stairs by himself. He chickened out and didn't do it. It is still a long way down for him. You can see my other chihuahua, Chili, in the back ground.

My new blog

Is all about our camping trips. Campin~Amy. We camp once or twice a month from the months of April thru November.

We camp in our VW bus, and our new teardrop trailer. Here are the kiddies on the way to a camp trip.

This is in MD on the Shore. This bus is our old one. Her name was 'Papa Smurf'.

'Everybus', not sure which year. Some buses lined up. There is usually 175 buses at this campout.

I will just be posting about our trips and our buses. This weekend we are off to PA, hope it doesn't rain too much. I'll be taking some embroidery work with me to stitch on the way up and back. :o) Can't wait to show you.... later.

I am so ready to camp

It's camping time and I am so ready for it. We haven't camped since November. We are headed to Greensboro, NC on Thursday for "EveryBus 08". Last year there are around 145 buses there. Here are our 4 buses. Our old bus we camped in is the red one, "smurf". Our new bus we will be camping in is the blue one, "Jaws". Jonah named it. :o). "Rusty" is the '58 deluxe rust colored one. And the double cab is "Charlie". Sorry the picture of the "Smurf" is so small. Is is a picture of us camping at the beach.

Let's camp

I made a Banner to hang from our bus while we camp. Our bus is named " Jaws". That is why I had to add a Jaws to one of the triangles. I love it.
