We took the month of June to travel and visit with our families. I delivered all the quilts in my previous posts. :-)
On the way back we saw some wonderful rainbows~
Our motor home campground was right out in the middle of the prairie in Wyoming.
The 50+mph wind gusts were not very fun, but the rainbows were sure pretty!
I attended a small retreat during our trip and worked on these Scrappy Trips blocks in Christmas scraps (Of course!) I followed Bonnie Hunter of Quiltville's tutorial.
Since we have been home I have made 10 more blocks. I want to do 26 more so that the quilt fits a queen size bed. I counted out my strips last night and need to do more cutting. :-/ It is an easy block and I am hoping when it is all sewn together it doesn't look quite so crazy! I never knew I had so many red Christmas prints! (My Mom had a lot of red too as I acquired her stash earlier this year.)
I will be back soon to show you the gift I made for my fellow retreats, and some of the gifties I received. ;-)
Until next time~
Happy Stitchin'!!

I am not a fan of camping in storms, lol. Your quilt is beautiful, always loved that design.

Welcome back. I love the scrappy trip blocks.
If I was going to be gifted a quilt, I'd have invited you to come visit me!
