Just stopping in for a quickie post. Was a crazy year and crazy summer. I had a great trip out east, visiting my daughter in the spring. I ended up having surgery on my knee, to clean out my torn meniscus(injury was in January) in June! So camping was a lot lighter this year, but I still managed to get down to my summer site a bit this year. </p><p>So I also worked on my fall owl theme for Serenity the Avion and wanted to share my projects and photos for that! It started with this fabulous owl book. I found this last winter!</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghD0h1N4nQYsJyEm5Of8UMYRIXslYQEMKE96GqwRPX6qd1-6HHk6vuElUaALDFscoduQaGu9IFWNcEP1emxYkf5Xe4S3qdyWE8v57eFLtLvZNcNdyjVj6kiqyhGGtbNCc1nydqgLGiwLo/s1440/224159541_10158297772411444_5430141439873920295_n.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1440" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghD0h1N4nQYsJyEm5Of8UMYRIXslYQEMKE96GqwRPX6qd1-6HHk6vuElUaALDFscoduQaGu9IFWNcEP1emxYkf5Xe4S3qdyWE8v57eFLtLvZNcNdyjVj6kiqyhGGtbNCc1nydqgLGiwLo/w400-h400/224159541_10158297772411444_5430141439873920295_n.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The individual blocks were sooo much fun to make.

Tropical on the brain the last few months! I had fun with this theme! It looks so pretty set up down at the campground. Unfortunately, I have only been down there 3 times since May, due to knee surgery on June 25th. I am healing up, but have to take things slow and rest after a busy day!</p><p>This coming weekend is Luau Weekend at the campground, so I will have more photos to share! But here is where we are now.</p><p>The quilt top came out amazing. I used fabric on hand and collected various Aloha wear shirts for each of the 25 blocks! The pattern was one I found for free on the internet by Moda, I can no longer find it for free. Some one is selling it on Etsy, she is charging for printing and shipping rather than the pattern itself. You may be able to find it for free, but if you can't here is a link: <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/618030184/sunshine-hawaiian-shirt-quilt-pattern-by?gpla=1&gao=1&&utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=shopping_us_all&utm_custom1=_k_a737c6055a53131b150ba7055f35f305_k_&utm_content=bing_319339186_1310617986645934_81913644654434_pla-4585513245482005:pla-4585513245482005_c__618030184&utm_custom2=319339186&msclkid=a737c6055a53131b150ba7055f35f305" target="_blank">Sunshine</a> Quilt.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbut1k2aYm0k2dUlFbaMIyIN9PhyK0ImyUMS8hCfZVP6Y6DL6NyWNArOToqHboD2m6ho3adtRmoJvMOb6KzBCaygACksBK6t4lpMgNnEd5O8Wr5x3VBYjztSUW_AXGmqD0H2z1bpSdhkM/s960/157705767_10157976853281444_3778126230080954155_n+%25281%2529.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="720" data-original-width="960" height="353" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbut1k2aYm0k2dUlFbaMIyIN9PhyK0ImyUMS8hCfZVP6Y6DL6NyWNArOToqHboD2m6ho3adtRmoJvMOb6KzBCaygACksBK6t4lpMgNnEd5O8Wr5x3VBYjztSUW_AXGmqD0H2z1bpSdhkM/w470-h353/157705767_10157976853281444_3778126230080954155_n+%25281%2529.jpg" width="470" /></a></div><br /><p>I found these fabulous Monkey dishes at Goodwill.

Before, I became the "Lady Bug Lady" at the campground. I have always loved Lady Bugs, so they were a natural project for me to make. However, they sat there unfinished forever. So this year, I decided to make them my trailer mascots. I created little Tropical outfits for them both! So, now will have to make them outfits for each of the themes! haha! Didn't they turn out cute? I found the pattern on Pinterest. I believe it was in Russian. So I downloaded the pattern and figured it out myself. It printed kind of fuzzy, but since it was just straight lines was not detrimental to the success of the pattern!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6XtN2AwWdNrnLY-LwBdTFO4-u_mvTZkLOkFW_BzLiNjP6JBeOEYLA5hJE-kE-l5euxel2uz4GoSpV0PeC23MgDTD-aIGpAXeHRTWwgv8bS9s8z-B5mXUo9342Gs8_GUrJk7Zx6xDfVyU/s1440/161610855_10157998538291444_2854829502316917543_o.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1440" height="397" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6XtN2AwWdNrnLY-LwBdTFO4-u_mvTZkLOkFW_BzLiNjP6JBeOEYLA5hJE-kE-l5euxel2uz4GoSpV0PeC23MgDTD-aIGpAXeHRTWwgv8bS9s8z-B5mXUo9342Gs8_GUrJk7Zx6xDfVyU/w397-h397/161610855_10157998538291444_2854829502316917543_o.jpg" width="397" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">A little video I made this spring!

My Funny Valentine 2021 Theme. <p> As in the previous post, i shared a preview of this years theme for the Shasta. I had started this theme 4 years ago and got as far as making the curtains and collecting a few items. So this year I decided to finish it for this summer's theme! I have so many now. I plan on revisiting each and sharing the ones that I had not shared! So to recap, this is the start of the curtains. I always start with curtain fabric to set the tone and colors of the theme. I love that this fabric has ALL of the colors, so the sky is the limit on this one. I have more projects to go on this but want to share where I am at the moment! </p><p><br /></p><p>Outside set up from 4 years ago!

I used the Michael Miller fabric (found on Etsy and is still available) with a burlap trim. I cut it a few inches wide and then frayed the edges to make a fringe at the bottom. Then used a accent fabric in red (always include my red to go with the trailer) And sewed that on top to hold in place. Before I sewed the curtains to the backing light blocking lining fabric. I think the next set of curtains, I will make a tutorial!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I am currently working on the quilt top for the comforter cover.

I back the quilt top with muslin and then use a sheet or decorative fabric to create the cover back!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Photos are where I am today!

I decided to add a few more and found a relatively inexpensive set of 9 on Retroplanet.com! So was fun to add! I realized there is a sub culture of Tiki mug collectors and they can get really expensive! Miscellaneous items from Goodwill have added some more details. I found some Tiki statues in the doll house decor and also ordered a few signs from Amazon. More to go, but it is coming along nicely! My latest find was the Monkey dishes at Goodwill! LOVE them. But no photo, i just realized. I guess i can save that for later! Two purses that I found at Goodwill! I realized as I search for items, you have to be open minded at what you might come across and where you can use them! But half the fun is the thrill of the hunt! <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMO38Pi6fn0gpUCr2ErJf6zQrTFp3WWVSy9n46vk5HRSwMqzbTVUfZ6FWK-b7f90gfPJhcT0NXGFuZ4Ee831FMqPOQkKF7_VugzSEwA0LWlNb7yYxwbAHsGrUo84z5lySWZzqxqYZyQhY/s960/152283113_10157939638386444_5160393215143973240_n.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="720" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMO38Pi6fn0gpUCr2ErJf6zQrTFp3WWVSy9n46vk5HRSwMqzbTVUfZ6FWK-b7f90gfPJhcT0NXGFuZ4Ee831FMqPOQkKF7_VugzSEwA0LWlNb7yYxwbAHsGrUo84z5lySWZzqxqYZyQhY/w300-h400/152283113_10157939638386444_5160393215143973240_n.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">3 of the set of 6 Star Wars Tiki mugs, a sign from Amazon (set of 4, cheap) and hibiscus plates from Goodwill</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjl4TjArIr_LX-2hPWMf9HdhEd7kg0oiUQmdrywhLyGNPL5LC_pu8y9W5kNkiOWZ589AkLkS_kr89ayM5TIUyaYVtpEsvmL_YQa-WeFvKipXsFKP1CIfGRGRPj2ZDDERDa1l4J_SQMKpZM/s960/152181065_10157939638591444_298136211158836287_n.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="720" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjl4TjArIr_LX-2hPWMf9HdhEd7kg0oiUQmdrywhLyGNPL5LC_pu8y9W5kNkiOWZ589AkLkS_kr89ayM5TIUyaYVtpEsvmL_YQa-WeFvKipXsFKP1CIfGRGRPj2ZDDERDa1l4J_SQMKpZM/w300-h400/152181065_10157939638591444_298136211158836287_n.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Tiki mug collection from Retro Planet and two wooden Tiki statues from my doll decor!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgorT0OfWywWlrThvF9iQ2qIWOoN946D6dxU_vJqZKWHO4bJ9uyeQ3C7vYIbKB6KK-nZiZmhujpEZZPsS_HUFdXnxFMv4_ltryAhnLLuhCVQC8mdn43H3MSMzffZpLITwvsnIroV0_DbG0/s960/152132210_10157939638491444_5978671467437239286_n.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="720" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgorT0OfWywWlrThvF9iQ2qIWOoN946D6dxU_vJqZKWHO4bJ9uyeQ3C7vYIbKB6KK-nZiZmhujpEZZPsS_HUFdXnxFMv4_ltryAhnLLuhCVQC8mdn43H3MSMzffZpLITwvsnIroV0_DbG0/w300-h400/152132210_10157939638491444_5978671467437239286_n.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Thrifted wooden spoons, Tiki warmer from Ollies, the other 3 Staw Wars Tiki Mugs from Thinkgeek.com which is no longer there....*sniff* Palm place mat from Hobby Lobby and hand made glass margaritta glasses were a gift from my mom a bunch of years ago!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghQ7raziA3y2g4llediM5g89HxVpEkbUrtXvPfmgz3KxrKLcdm4qKGmqx0J3jYi4hV6bJCiHVY22QVagOpQsYGkTikEWUSVJbmap-McDWHhS1CaAJc5EL4hsqOYhpOucUTeTXZeYIj0gc/s960/152102108_10157939638621444_5490726845248056598_n.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="720" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghQ7raziA3y2g4llediM5g89HxVpEkbUrtXvPfmgz3KxrKLcdm4qKGmqx0J3jYi4hV6bJCiHVY22QVagOpQsYGkTikEWUSVJbmap-McDWHhS1CaAJc5EL4hsqOYhpOucUTeTXZeYIj0gc/w300-h400/152102108_10157939638621444_5490726845248056598_n.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Various items from my stash!

A few more final touches for the trailer will be added, but it is mostly finished! </p><p>Introducing my Pineapple Party!! With flamingo accents! This theme started with the panels that were used for the comforter cover. I found it a while back when visiting my father in Redmond Washington, before he passed away. Any how my son Tyrus loves flamingos. So when I saw the panel I had to get it for him and his then girlfriend Kayla to make them a plush backed quilt. I loved it and later decided that i wanted one too. So I ordered 3 more panels (one set was used for another plush backed quilt for my best friend Jair) and discovered the red fabric that was part of the fabric series. I was perfect for my Shasta trailer for curtains! Fast forward to now! I never got around to making this theme for the Shasta, however, it has the colors for my Avion as well! Gold and turquoise. So it was perfect for a summer them for Serenity!! so here are the details! </p><p>First: the Flamingo/Pineapple panel that started it all! Note* I decided since Art was going to be camping with me to focus more on the Pineapple aspect and less on the Flamingos, although did add a few here and there! <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj68uFmwtM8C0yD4qp-9SKYe4nLFf4GGCLN88F7OWrDdiCQmIYGMiE2PQiHyCFRVCU9NIPrir5RnqiUd24byLixadIsIYuYxa7GpRXdN9Q8WIOzFk0LaebHZOUxWmoVvIlzyyix-XUg8vc/s693/flaminglepanel.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="693" data-original-width="693" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj68uFmwtM8C0yD4qp-9SKYe4nLFf4GGCLN88F7OWrDdiCQmIYGMiE2PQiHyCFRVCU9NIPrir5RnqiUd24byLixadIsIYuYxa7GpRXdN9Q8WIOzFk0LaebHZOUxWmoVvIlzyyix-XUg8vc/w640-h640/flaminglepanel.jpg" width="640" /></a></p>The fabulous curtain fabric!!

Briard is the designer. I keep discovering more pieces. I found an amazing 3 gallon coffee pot, it was not that expensive, so I had to add it to the collection.

I discovered the wall backsplash is able to hold magnets, so I added some magnetic spice containers and a peel and stick magnetic knife holder! I will add the spices closer to camping seasin! </p></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCOIQJWF5LFptnB5cgawIea7eZg2-kAF1cASeYq2RxdOWURA4yl_QDeYJDzUGJTg-AJaeCNUKDdUSqzhUF3i9Gniw-hyLhJkeVx3aWPQVrYldZaI5tgJwN4qx0FNsg-LPJ8qrzoVBboXQ/s1440/145976491_10157900749806444_2867226117974798094_o.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1440" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCOIQJWF5LFptnB5cgawIea7eZg2-kAF1cASeYq2RxdOWURA4yl_QDeYJDzUGJTg-AJaeCNUKDdUSqzhUF3i9Gniw-hyLhJkeVx3aWPQVrYldZaI5tgJwN4qx0FNsg-LPJ8qrzoVBboXQ/w640-h640/145976491_10157900749806444_2867226117974798094_o.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>Next came the pillows!

I quick Owl Halloween decor!<p> *click on photos for full view*</p><p>I brought my new Avion home shortly before my last camping trip in October. As always, wanted to add my touches to her decor as soon as I could. Even though the original decor was lovely, it simply wasn't me. I needed some stronger colors and lots of fun additions. Being that I only had a few (3-4) weeks or so, I quickly found things that I had around the studio with some quick trips to Goodwill and a few finds from Etsy. First and foremost, new curtains. I always start a new theme with curtain fabric. I searched for days to find the perfect retro fabric, got some samples and still never found something I LOVED. But, I had this cool owl fabric that I had purchased for a possible dress. It had the right turquoise and accent colors. Now that I decided to use that as my start, I knew that there wasn't enough for a complete set of curtains, I brought the fabric with me to the fabric store and found a base fabric to use as the curtains and then use the owls as a border! Voila! Fast fix. So now i had the start of my theme! </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwZfcb4PqYi_hjA218IfByyqt8ouVn4s1O8Dry0OWXLWXmnwXoxqwhyphenhyphenOFXhqRPLv0mS5TH-RHywbtrJL7Xe0iTUC2aS1aD_8Qz-gLzRUwG1XIAxOiJzjjv_aeMf6WLf5IIsIuoiQ2SY20/s1440/120764915_10157646521066444_6140477180440610451_o.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1440" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwZfcb4PqYi_hjA218IfByyqt8ouVn4s1O8Dry0OWXLWXmnwXoxqwhyphenhyphenOFXhqRPLv0mS5TH-RHywbtrJL7Xe0iTUC2aS1aD_8Qz-gLzRUwG1XIAxOiJzjjv_aeMf6WLf5IIsIuoiQ2SY20/w640-h640/120764915_10157646521066444_6140477180440610451_o.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">so for the tie backs, I simply found some fabric on hand that was a nice accent.

Won First place People's choice!Hey every one! Yeah, it has been a while again! But for those that stumble across my post, I thought I would share the photos from my first rally of the season! I am one of those that never stops making things and bores easily. So once again, i have changed the theme for my trailer. This year's theme is Harry Potter with a leaning toward Gryffindor! ...Enjoy! First ones are of the preparations! this was the beginning of the curtains. I found fabric that reminded me of Harry's bed curtains in the Gryffindor dorm!<br />

i apologize that the photos jump around, there is just no simple way to get these on the blog in order..Here is a simulated Oil Lamp that i found at Goodwill, I added a flickering bulb to make it seem more realistic. All of the lamps in the Harry Potter movies were oil based, so i found electrified ones (for safety reasons, no actual oil)<br />

My little writing desk. I was trying to add details that would make the trailer feel like it might if I had been an actual Hogwarts Alumn. Maybe a professor on vacation!

The bed. The sheets are white with stars on it in flannel. In the movie Harry's bed in the dorm had white sheets and red blankets. I took inspiration from that. The stars on the sheet were bonus and matched the theme well! and flannel! Oh MY! i had never slept on flannel before, so cozy!<br />

My tea station. If you look at the movie stills, you can see in the back ground of the Divination classroom there are stacks and stacks of tea cups. Also on a table there is a vintage tea dispenser, similar to this.It is for heating the water. You put the water in the chamber and in the center you drop in a coal to heat it. The top has a flange with vents so you can keep a teapot of tea warm! This was a find at an antique store on my retreat with my Ramblin Rosies group!<br />

But thought I would post an update! I went to a Vintage Market and Trailer Rally a few weeks ago and thought i would share some of the photos. I added a new theme to my trailer for this year with pink and red, with a Red Riding Hood theme. The curtains were pink with Red Riding Hood tumbled as the design by my now favorite designer Stacie Lest Hsu! I hand appliqued the comforter cover using the pattern and templates from Lori Holt's quilt along that she did last year from her blog: Bee in My Bonnet! Using many fun colors for a bright and cheery quilt to go along with the theme! <br />

I created some new applique designs for the pillows to enhance my Red Riding Hood them, modeling the characters a bit from the actual fabric to coordinate well. I made the doll kit that came with the fabric line and found a wolf in my toy stash! </div>

In the first photo, you can see my newly built dinette. I had my builder take out the original gaucho bench and using the original wood, recreate it into a dinette for two. He made a new little table, with red boomerang laminate (we decided to redo all the laminate at this time as well to all red rather than the original gray!) Then I made new cushions to size. I created the cushions so they can still all lay down on top of the collapsible unit and make into a small bed!

Well I guess I can begin with an update on this year's trailer decorating! I created a new look for the inside. I am so excited about camping this year! I have a new project happening here soon. I am having our builder convert the back bench into a table and two smaller benches. That way I will have a table to have morning coffee or what ever, since I like to keep the bed set up!<br />
<br />
Any how...here are the inside pictures I took so far! I will take more pictures whenwe get to camp on Memorial day weekend...<br />
<br />
It all started with wanting all of the colors that the Shasta Re-Issues came in. But since I can only have one trailer, I decided there is no reason why I can't decorate in each of the colors. The last theme was turquoise and red with the gnomes. This year is pink and red with a Red Riding Hood theme!<br />

It started with this wonderful quilt along that I found on Lori Holt's Bee In my Bonnet Blog, last spring! I finally finished it this winter! So much fun! Each of the blocks were hand appliqued, then a border sewn on and then all sewn together!<br />

I keep the trailer heated all winter long, so it is warm anytime I want to go out and hang out in there. But my electric heater died. I went to Lowes to buy a new one..and look what I found! An electric heater that looks like a little wood burning stove, with a simulated flame even! Love this! Makes it look so cozy!</div>

My other new addition is an adult tricycle! I have been wanting one for ages. But of course I can't just have a bike...she needed some sprucing up! Can't wait to ride her...I think she needs a name....hhmmm I made her a new flag and a basket liner...many additions to her standard stuff!

Glamping we will go!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Well here we go...it is going to be a rather long post...but lots of eye candy for you all! Well after Christmas i get bored and start dreaming and looking for new things...and shopping happens too. I had found this adorable mushroom play house. My current trailer theme as you know is all about the Gnome Love...so how could i resist this play house! I plan on bringing it with me to set up for the glamping trip when i go in May! AND...when i went to get my pickets to build my picket fence (below)...look who had to come hom with me! My 42" gnomie...he is still nameless...just Gnomie for now.. I had him bukled in the front seat on my way home....i did catch a couple of men catch sight of him and laugh! I wonder what kind of looks i will get on the highway when i go camping?...haha!</div>

I wanted something unique and all my own. After extensive pinterest research and coming up short...i took matters in my own hands and came up with this idea. I traced a picket on the pointed end..then drew a heart shape at the top of that. Then i measured from the new "picket" top (not the heart...just the shape that was the same as the other end) Split that in half and cut the pickets at the halfway mark. I then used my scroll saw and cut out the hearts and the new "top" shape... </div>

Here i used clear mirror clips to hook the wire for my flowerboxes on to. Originally i was going to use picture hanging hooks. I had cut the triangle off but realized the hole was way too small for the screws from the window frame. When i came back up and looked in the organizier again..i spotted these clear clips and the screws fit perfectly! Woohooo! love those serendipitous moments!</div>

Another one off the to-do list! Ever since i got my traler these clear doors drove me nuts. You can not store anything inside there with out seeing it. Even when i folded the blankets and linens neatly it still looked messy. So i took one of the clear panels out, used it to measure out two pieces of cardboard. I covered each with red gingham fabric that i used that darling Shasta trailer duct tape with..i knew i would use it eventually! haha...and then i used tiny nails at each corner to hold them in place. I took each door off by unscrewing the hinges from the frame...and then remounted them..took maybe 15 minutes!</div>

</div>
A fun project i did last year!! a Quilted Apple purse from my own design. After looking at Disney inspired outfits and falling in love with an apple purse that was over $400 i decided to take things into my own hands and make one of my very own...so I drew up a pattern and picked out fun fabrics and came up with this!<br />

Some of my dress creations! This one was for Valentine's day last year. I used left over fabric from the curtains for my trailer! I had a couple of choices and used the other one with this fabric as trim, so i had a bunch left over. At the moment this dress no longer fits...i got a bit chubbier this last year *sigh*</div>

It seems in winter each year, i get this itch to finish some unfinished fabric objects....aka UFO's! Here is yet another one I am working on. A quilt i had started over a year ago for my grand daughter Flora...who just turned 3 on the 18th of this month....my little darling! So here you see what I found when i pulled the project out of it's tub.... Finished daisy blocks and the strips....</div>

such beautiful and soft colors!!! I love the combination...i did good when i picked these out last year! So weird going back to a project you started in the past....not being able to remember what you were thinking at the time. Some times it takes a while to get reaquainted with the project....some times you even have to develop a whole new relationship with the project...</div>

I bought the batting and backing fabric this week..but won't be able to get the quilting done until i get my Bernina back. My cheapo Singer is getting me from point A to point B...but it is limited....dropping feeddogs for free motion quilting is not one of it's abilities...lol </div>

For the last couple of years i have been eating gluten free. Recently i have noticed an even worse reaction to eating gluten. I break out in these little hives on my chin if i eat much with gluten in it! I have even reacted to my make up...yup! Makeup can have gluten in it..if you are sensitive to gluten you might want to check it! Any how....in my life the occasional treat for me is a wonderfully grilled hamburger with all the fixins...now though it would have to be bunless. So in celebration of that all American treat....i present to you...my hamburger dress! LOL!<br />

So one of my favorite things to do is to make fun dresses and clothing for myself! One of my latest outfits was inspired and based around my coveted Mab Graves necklace that i was ever so lucky to grab and purchase at the last Blythecon held in Chicago..back in fall! So first was looking for days to find the perfect fabric with the perfect colors! I found one with the turquoise and pink with rockets similiar to the on in the tiny circle above her head! I then cut out blank rockets from wood and went to work!</div>

When Hobby Lobby starts bringing out Christmas in August, or was it July? Being the lover of all things Christmas, I always have to sneak a peak! I had plans for my trailer, to do a decorating scheme with each of the trailer colors. I am only allowed to have ONE trailer, hubby has made sure to tell me that ever since I flippantly made a comment about wishing I could have one in each color...Red, Butternut, Seafoam and the coveted custom pink! hahahahaha! I never really intended one of each, simply a pipe dream. However, having decorations in each of the colors is definitely doable! <br />
<br />
So first new scheme: Turquoise and Red, inspired by the darling Christmas decorations I found way back when at Hobby Lobby! It started with this amazing Riley Blake fabric, the paisleys were so darn cute.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Then after the holidays I noticed that this guy that was sitting by my piano, matched the color scheme and I was planning on making a comforter cover for my feather comforter I had found at Goodwill! So the Gnome theme was born! Aren't those salt and pepper shakers so cute? A Trailer friend of mine, Tammy sent me those when she saw my theme. I just adore them!</div>

Finally was able to get around to the last 3 pillow covers. After much research I determined that "gnome pillows" was not something I could buy..so I drafted my own. Found a bunch of male and female images and drew from my favorites!!

and I have a tropical straw umbrella in my studio. I found it really cheap for $19.99 on Amazon....I love it. I am going to use the bar from the patio and decorate that as a Tiki Bar with this umbrella at my campsite....so the fun continues..</div>

I had started it last year and never got around to working on it. Until my UFO finishing stint this past couple of months!<br />
<br />
Here were the humble beginnings way back on February 1st of last year! I had started it while i was gathering things for my trailer...but life brought in the usual distractions and i never got back around to it...so there it sat..pieces cut and these beginnings in a box. When i started on it again a few weeks ago there were a couple more rounds than this..but it was a week long project of working on it pretty non stop....I love the results though!<br />
<br />

In the middle of working on the quilt though, my Bernina died. SO freaking out...I was able to purchase a little cheap Singer... $129!!! I have to say it has been holding it's own. 3 weeks later i am still with out my Bernina and i am still working with this little gem. I will never put these babies down again....it saved my sanity!</div>

i have been slowly cleaning and organizing my studio in between projects...and i organized all of the furniture and decorating items i was using this for while i was doing doll rooms. It was never meant to be a permanent spot to store things...haha. SO with a couple of cans of spray paint and masking tape i was able to give it a bit of a facelift. I tightened up all the screws to make it more stable..and voila! A cute cart to take camping!</div>

Big News!!! I got a new tow vehicle. My lease was up on my Flex so i went looking! After seeing the enormous price on Expeditions..i thought i would test drive a truck. Never in my years did i think i was going to end up with a pick up truck...but when they showed me the console was actually a 6th seat i was sold! I LOVE it! Here in this picture was the first time i ever "broke camp" and got her hooked up to my vehicle 100% ALL BY MYSELF!! I had to take her to my dealer for some warranty work and a recall on her axle. I love love love how nicely my truck tows her! felt so much more secure! She unfortunately is currently still up there....i miss her. </div>

another project i accomplished this winter! Flower boxes. I made 3 of them. When i get my trailer back i am going to figure out the final installation.I am thinking of finding some sort of doohicky that i can add to a couple of the window frame screws and then clip these on with badge clips. That way they can be easily removed and stored for bad weather and rain!</div>

Here she is getting her polka dots! I used my Cricut cutter and the white vinyl you can get for this at the craft stores. Took about $40 to do..and they have held up fabulous so far! I figured as cheap as it was..it wouldn't take much to replace any when needed!</div>

I love love restoring items. I had saved and saved babysitting and sewing money for this table set. One of my pride and joys. It originally was oak. I had gotten it from the Turkey Farm way back when i was young with the older kids and with my ex..we didn't have much. Unfortunately when we remodelled our kitchen here in our big house it was set outside..no where else to put it at the time..and the rain ruined it. So the frames got stuck into the basement for 15+ years. I thought it would be perfect to go with my trailer with a face lift. I searched high and low for the table top and to no avail the correct size for the seats. So I ended up buying only the top from a seller on Etsy (unfinished pine) and then cut out rough circles and then added fabric covered with clear vinyl for the seats. I am so happy with how it turned out!</div>

So last summer we actually went on a couple of camping adventures! I found this cute family owned campground called Eby Pines in Bristol Indiana. It is near Shipshewana and some other great places...oh and the factory where she was made! Here we are back from our maiden voyage..we had such a great time! My camping assistant Turner.....makes life so much easier..we have the set up and tear down down pat now! Jon is some times reluctant.but he seems to enjoy it. And Maddie...Turner's girlfriend at the time...they have broken up since..ah young love....</div>

So here you see a yucky rug..old,dirty and stained. I had it on the front porch and the boys did the cinnamon challenge....if you google that...promise me you won't do it. I am surprised no one choked to death. But if you ever wondered if cinnamon stains?...yup...it does.. Any how it was destined for the trash..but WAIT!! it is red...sooo i came up with this idea to paint it with roses to cover up the stain. I figure it was going to be trashed....and it can get dirty camping and no big loss. So here you see in stages how it got a facelift. It has not been used yet. I have been working on projects here and there all winter for the trailer...can't wait to use them all!</div>

I decided painting on the floor was way to hard on my back. so i had Tyrus bring up my two 8ft tables to my doll room so i could finish this. It actually sat here for another month..it was the desire to start working out in this room again that finally got me going to finish it...here I started to add more of the stems and leaves. Once i got back into it..it only took a couple of days to finish!</div>

<br />
i am so excited about all of this...My new girl coming is the Red Shasta Airflyte and her name is My Funny Valentine...so i figure i have a small window to collect Valentine themed things...She originally was going to have a rose theme...so i can incorporate both...funny story on how this all transpired:...yeah grab your cup of coffee and humor me..i have to tell you the story...It all Started several years ago when my Friend Beth Bricker bought her trailer and posted it on our art group...then Sue her best friend...also my friend got her pink and white Cracklin Rose...i followed them both...watching...slightly envious..but totally intrigued..so each year a few times i catch a glimpse of a trailer here and there on Pinterest or some where....and i get the itch again. This time it was bad enough i started looking on Craigslist...and then my favorite..ebay...and there she was..the second time I looked...the darling NEW Shasta Airflyte..first i saw her in pink...then scrolling down..in RED!!! i LOVE RED!!! I noticed that it was from a dealer here in Michigan...in Grand Rapids..only an hour drive for me....I sent the auction to my husband..he never goes on ebay...just to test the waters...set the stage...you know...get him used to the idea...<br />
<br />
so next day...i mentioned something to him....his response...oh yeah..well if we did get one we probably should get a new one with all the bells and whistles..."Honey....this was a new one!"...oh cool he says..end of this conversation...well for the moment....*side note:..my husband's idea of "roughing it" is a hotel with no room service*<br />
<br />
one more day later...i say..'well i could at least make a doll sized one for My Blythe dolls'...discussed that and details..he loves details, had some great ideas.... Later that day...we have a date...you know....sex date while the kids were at school....so relaxed the rest of the evening....well...so was he...Some how i got back on the trailer thing...he were giggling about how we like to buy the things we want...instead of things we should do...like new siding on our house...it is still good but needs to be replaced some time in the next few years....He goes..yeah like my new projector...your trailer! "what?..i can get a trailer??." Yeah sure..if you can get it in your name, your credit....i don't care!!! Inside i was jumping up and down with joy.<br />
<br />
So that very next morning...on Tuesday last week i made the phone call to the RV dealer...and yup they had one in the show room and i was welcome to come look. I have my grandson on Tuesdays..so i couldn't go right away..but Wednesday i took the drive up..all by myself. Never said a word to any one....and sure enough it was absolutely adorable...and i asked him what it would take..I had the exact amount of down payment needed....my credit was excellent and i was pretty much approved on the spot. I honestly did just go to look..it all happened so fast... I signed the paper...found out that it was already in stock..yippeee!! no waiting...and so i set up the date for me to come and learn how to use her and pick her up(Tuesday this week...weather permitting)<br />
<br />
so that afternoon i texted Art about how it all transpired....sent him a picture....<br />

<br />
<br />
all i get back is:<br />
"really"<br />
oh shit...he is mad???!!...or what??..so i babble on about how excited i am..how much Turner wants to go camping...all the great things about it..etc...."honey don't you remember?.you said I could"<br />
<br />
he was at work..so his answers were short...one though came back..right after i said it too..."Um was it one of those *after sex conversations*?"....hahahaha...um yes!<br />
<br />
So i am a nervous wreck for a few hours until he gets home....He comes in...i ask.."do you really not remember our conversation?..where you said i could?" <br />
<br />
Vaguely..honey...i am NOT mad...i am happy for you..i hope you enjoy it....<br />
<br />
PHEW!!! thank god he wasn't mad....<br />
<br />
So a while later....he wanders into the front room that is below my open second floor office and studio...<br />
"honey?...can we call this your Valentine's present, it is red after all?"<br />
<br />
i say..."well sure...since you never get me a gift any way...it can be for the next 15 years!"...lol....<br />
<br />
"but i get you roses every year!!!"<br />
<br />
"yes you do...and i love them!!"<br />
<br />
So the thought occurred to me..since i was planning a red checkered and rose theme already, that 'Valentine' would be the best name for her...so appropriate...but when a friend suggested 'My Funny Valentine' could be my theme song...I had to change it to that...since it was a pretty funny story<br />
<br />
Moral of this long story...give hubby great sex...and time requests afterward, during the lovely afterglow...you can pretty much get anything....hhmmm what do i want next?...hahaha<br />
<br />
so to keep on sharing my newest grand adventure......i have already been collecting items for her.and since there is only two more weeks for Valentine's themed things..i hurried up...I have been visiting the sections at my favorite stores....might need to hit the thrift shops too...while they still have Valentine themed items...<br />
so far...this is what has come in the mail..and what i have bought so far.... I hope you enjoyed my story..i still am giggling about the whole thing...I have to make our first trip perfect..since Art has never gone camping..and considers it way to primitive for him..and beyond roughing it..lol<br />

It took me forever to get back on here...but here is a quick..well not so quick catch up post...I left off getting ready for the wedding!...well it was a lot of work but was an amazing day with a beautiful bride and groom! The best part it brought so many friends and family members together for a memorable event!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
another wonderful thing that happened that day...Stephanie brought her new honey Adam along for the wedding! He was an amazing help..i am forever grateful for all of his help...and the help of Stephanie and Salina in pulling this off. I ended up throwing up for several hours the morning of the wedding....well until 2 hours before. At first i thought it may have been alcohol poisoning from the night before..but due to the delay and then lingering for 4 days after i am wondering if I had the flu bug...any how due to my brother's quick thinking and nurturing and a ton of anti nausea medicine i was able to make it through....The wedding was gorgeous and a lovely day...those are the memories we want to have :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
so now along with a new man..Stephanie is also expecting her first baby in March...yay...we think the romance the weekend of the wedding did the trick...hehe!

and then another project...Cleaning for me is a dangerous thing..lol! It often ends up in large projects. A week before school started i was getting the boys rooms ready for school and decided that the saying of " you can't polish a turd" was so true to this room that i took the entire room apart down to taking the carpet out. I installed a brand new laminate floor, trimmed it out and then bought new beds for the boys...i love the results!!</div>

any how..here is my office...a mess, cluttered, i felt claustrophobic....something needed to be done. I had started clearing off my desk and looked around..i was ready for something other than purple....to this day i am not sure why i picked purple in the first place..haha...i think it was a spiritual growth moment and wanted to pick something that reflected that! Well now it is time for my office to reflect ME....Red is my favorite color..and i have loved turquoise with red the past couple of years..so that was my choice. So a week later it is done and being moved into as i type...well when i am done typing..lol!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixRX4x2Am26NSE5bSbC_Zwuk_wB7fhzTB-t8PYGTNs6pjhMAC_nzh7OiooyR5QZxBxq3ua6q5akVfqIswT9_pOINOzQMqYDzT3EWFTF2pqHHyH6bjbGVhsysy-HuvsBrdczHdBiFsSRmI/s1600/1office01.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixRX4x2Am26NSE5bSbC_Zwuk_wB7fhzTB-t8PYGTNs6pjhMAC_nzh7OiooyR5QZxBxq3ua6q5akVfqIswT9_pOINOzQMqYDzT3EWFTF2pqHHyH6bjbGVhsysy-HuvsBrdczHdBiFsSRmI/s320/1office01.jpg" width="213" /></a></div>

So there you have it...a quick version of my summer...every day around here is full and fun and filled with love and laughter...and i hope to not take so long next time....and not have to try to cram a million events in one post...and maybe share an insight or two..<br />

thank you for visiting..and if you made it this far in this post...thank you for hanging in there with me...i hope i didn't bore you all to tears...my hand full of few readers..lol!

It just always seems that i am on a dead run and have way too many places to visit while i am on the internet...and of course Facebook has become a bit of an addiction! <br />
<br />
so lets start with some of the more interesting photos! haha! I have been working furiously on getting my back yard ready for Ashton and Shannon's wedding at the end of June! I am making good progress but there is still so much to do! In the meantime spring has blessed me with some gorgeous flowers...earlier than usual due to our very warm March...so here are some photos as it is now...The pool is almost there..we are adding a few more trees...and at the moment one of the fence panels is off for a repair..that will all be fixed this week...and we are enclosing the pool pump finally!

Clematis has become one of my new garden favorites! I am at the point that i can't add any more trees for height, so i have resorted to clematis and nice lattice frames to grow them on! Forgive me..their names have not stuck in my head..I think this one is called Niobe<br />

a wonderful gift from my very talented doll artist friend Joey! he sent me a surprise package with this darling boy in there! He sculpts his dolls and then creates molds and pours his own resin to create his wonderful dolls! This particular mold is very small..around 6 inches total! Isn't he fun? His name is Frederick!</div>

So with spring also comes baseball! Jonathon decided to try baseball this year rather than soccer. He LOVES it and has taken right to it and is doing amazingly well! He is number 13, he picked that when he heard it was my lucky number! :) Turner is also playing..so juggling two baseball schedules and all of the games is getting quite interesting! I will post a picture of Turner this week...they are both so darn cute! <br />

oh i keep forgetting...Last summer I decided to become licensed to teach Zumba..with my forever quest of trying to get this stubborn weight off...yeah i lost 40 last year..it found me again...*sigh* one of the most frustrating things ever....i have tried so many things..i had to laugh at my "pole" post..that didn't stay up very long...there is no way i can lift all of this weight with my arms at this point..maybe one day it will go back up..but for now i am engrossed with Zumba..well I was until i got so busy with the garden projects. However, once the wedding has come and gone I am going to concentrate on Zumba the rest of the summer...So this spring to get me excited again with the Zumba quest i took two more trainings..Zumba Gold and also the newest Zumba Sentao! I flew down to Miami for Sentao and had a blast by myself..well it would have been more fun with Art along....here i am at the hotel..the concierge was lovely and she insisted on taking a photo....i went to a wonderful Peruvian restaurant by myself and was in bed by 8:30...haha!<br />

Again i am on the weight loss trek....i had successfully lost almost 40 pounds last year..and unfortunately 30 of it found me again...so here i am back to square 2.....This year i am taking a bit of a different approach and am working on healing my self image...they say that extra weight represents protecting yourself. So i think it would be wise and beneficial to dig a bit deeper and find any of the root causes..besides the fact that i am getting a bit older and menopause is coming some time in the near future..so my hormones are probably all f-ed up and wacked out on top of that!..haha! <div><br /></div><div>So here it is the 15th day of the New Year...i basically have been resting the last two weeks and getting my land legs back for the boys and the busy school days. The newest things i have been interested in is Pinterest, which recently has sparked an interest in nail art...as soon as i find a bit of time that involves enough free time to let nail polish dry i plan on playing and trying some stuff out...i have gathered enough supplies now to begin...I for sure will share on here when i do!</div><div><br /></div><div>I have now put on a new background....obviously the other one had been here a year or so...geesh what neglect...so hopefully i will remember to come post!</div><div><br /></div><div>Oh the most exciting thing going on right now is that i joined the Brave Girls Club and am participating in the Body Restoration..that is actually why i am on here to begin with..printing out this last weeks assignment and photos...so i can make the art ....new assignment tomorrow..so i need to catch up~!</div><div><br /></div><div>i haven't done much art lately, and have not taken many pictures the last few weeks..but i guess i could share some from Christmas...oooh and of my new Grandson Micah...my new little love!</div><div><br /></div><div>so for now i won't talk and bore you any more and promise to come back with some more pictures next time...those are much more fun that talk..haha!</div><div>love and hugs!!</div><div><br /></div>Angela Hoffmannhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07282833173902938380noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-824439601554465351.post-44889849178325912562011-03-07T17:44:00.002-05:002011-03-07T17:48:29.452-05:00Weight check in<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_v1upkaq3ALXbjXYuMWHXilwhwi-Ue_CxSimTzVZA7Ztz-lF6ywkT_r0tfqGaxlpGvyldCqlx4gIOEcuiFBrKsEwgA9Db98yo7YYaSbfect7cKw77dm-y2lsfK1Zyoeh2gOoN8CvpBqI/s1600/1angela26lbs.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_v1upkaq3ALXbjXYuMWHXilwhwi-Ue_CxSimTzVZA7Ztz-lF6ywkT_r0tfqGaxlpGvyldCqlx4gIOEcuiFBrKsEwgA9Db98yo7YYaSbfect7cKw77dm-y2lsfK1Zyoeh2gOoN8CvpBqI/s400/1angela26lbs.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5581472933787357970" border="0" /></a><br />Just a quick check in..taken on February 24th , me at a 26 pound loss so far! yay!<br /><br />my face and neck have become much smaller..weight off my shoulders and my chest..still the same jeans but they are looser now and totally more comfortable..lol! I had a 3 pound gain during our week vacation in Cancun...but i was relieved it was only 3 pounds and not more like I had expected...Mood has been very positive through all of this and even looked forward to getting back on my diet when we arrived home! No regrets!Angela Hoffmannhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07282833173902938380noreply@blogger.com3
