Apron Class

We decided to create our own aprons to wear in our classes, as most of our classes involve playing with messy techniques!

The aprons, stamped with our names, also serve as a way for us to know each other better.

Kathi is creating a hand made stamp from foam sheets

Julie is designing an image on a foam sheet

Textile Paints are used in the stamping process.

By heat setting the paints, they become permanent and the aprons can be washed if necessary.

Did everyone remember to heat set their apron?

The scenery has been gorgeous on this trip...
We are making time to stop at quilt shops, antique stores, garage sales & thrift stores along the way.
I have lots of goodies and treasures that I can incorporate into my fiber art when I return home.

Nothing like a change of scenery to inspire the artist in all of us...

Ponderosa Pines

I am drawn to the amazing bark on these pine trees.

Paul Harvey is really getting around on this trip!


I have more images to add to this post, but for some reason I am unable to add anymore. I will try again later.
Posting to the blog is a bit more challenging on the road than it is at home...

The landscape is incredibly green for this time of year!
Oregon is not the only state that has had lots of wet weather.

Horses always seem to gather around a building...

No matter what state it happens to be in!

This baby could go at any moment...


Leaving Nevada today and heading back into California.

The change of scenery is just what we needed.
I am inspired by our travels and anxious to get some cloth under the needle soon!

More tomorrow...

Paul Harvey in California & Nevada...

California Ponies

I threw Paul Harvey over the rail fence to take a photo...and it scared the ponies. The poor babies jumped up and ran away!
Once I walked away to get back and take the photo, they realized there was no danger, and were rather interested in the quilt.
Made for a pretty picture...

Applecore.....Take-a-Long Quilt

I never leave home without a hand project.
I have made several queen size quilts over the years by hand sewing them while we travel along at 55 mpg

I have lots of images to share with you.....60 bottles of fabric paint at a garage sale today, fabric that looks like barb wire, a foam stamp shaped like a dog, lots of great treasures.

The problem is the wi-fi on the road is not so dependable....it cuts you off right in the middle of an image download.....which can be a bit irritating.

We are on the road for a few more days, I will try and stay in touch and keep you posted on our travels.
