"EYE CANDY" Made these little pin wheels while traveling. Enough for 3 big pickle jars! I just love them! |
Antiquing is so fun while traveling! Plan on using the canisters in my Art Studio for storage with lids on or off! |
Red and Yellow turn me on! I can hardly ever resist! |
Here's how I travel with handwork on my lap workin away! |
Quilting Shop Hopping was as much fun as Antiquing. Here is my combined stash from the trip! |
I took buttons but gathered more along the way! |
This was such a cute idea for little gifts! Selection of fabric pieces; probably like fat quarter size, in pint jars with bow! |
Quilt shops are so cute anymore! |
Started my collection of cigar boxes! |
I enjoyed my visit here so much! Bought a lot too! |
Such a cute wooden Cherry Garland! It's on my to do list for sure! |
Talk about "Eye Candy"! This is where I bought my tiles in Santa Fe. |
Could have stayed here a lot longer and spent a lot more money! |
Breath Taking! |
Fabrics I bought from one shop! |
My Cousin Florence's Sun Bonnet Sue Wall Hanging which inspired me to make my own! |
I drew off a pattern from hers and have got this far so far! |
Have these left to do plus the embroidery work and rickrack trim |
My fabulous tiles from Santa Fe! |
Really sharp Southwest Wall Hanging! |

This is a most colorful post, my eyeballs kind of hurt now, LOL
I love those jars filled with your yo-yos! what a great thing to make while on the road. I usually just knit buy YOU are using like a real needle -- bravo!
Peace~

Awesome trip, fun and finds! I do all manner of handwork as well and yo-yos (pinwheels), too. My husband bought me a vintage yo-yo quilt (3,000+ yo-yos in it!) last year and it have actually separated it to make to foot-of-the-bed throws for two beds, plus I plan to make myself a vest with the rest of them.
Can't wait to see how you use your yo-yos!
Hugs and happy week,

Your yo yo's are adorable, I wish I could do crafts while riding, but my stomach won't have it. The sun bonnet Sues are soooo cute. You had a great rode trip...So fun!
