Vintage Finds

Shopping, Vintage, , , , , , ,

I posted on Instagram that I went to a Vintage Market last weekend, so today I thought that I would share my Vintage Finds!  This market was fun, but I do have to admit that it was just a little bit overwhelming to me.

 I loved everything there and so to pick just a few items was hard to do!vintage finds (more…)

I wanted to take a couple of thank you gifts up to my cousins in Canada for helping me learn how to do a pantograph on the quilting machine!  Since both of them are quilters, I decided to make each of them a Goody Goody Binding Kit.goody goody binding kit (more…)

I decided that I needed some fun fall colors in my house, so I did this arrangement of Fall Mason Jar Flowers!  Don’t you love the vibrant colors in these flowers and the beautiful fall tones.  It is  also perfect that there is just a touch of purple in this arrangement that sets it off beautifully!fall mason jar flowers (more…)

Trip to Canada

Family, Travels, , , , , , ,

I feel like I have been on a bit of a roller coaster ride these last three weeks.  It started off with our girls retreat, then I was home for a week, but it was a very busy week, then my husband and I took a whirlwind Trip to Canada!  So I have been quite a bum ever since school started and I have had a little more free time!canada-trip (more…)

Happy Labor Day!  

I had a great weekend.  My husband and I went up to our cabin, the leaves along the way were breathtaking as we drove up the canyon!fall leaves 2016I could not believe all the beautiful colors…everywhere we looked!fall leaves 2016

I went to Swiss Days in MidwaySwiss DaysIt was a crazy mad house like always, but my daughter joined me and we did a little shopping!  I was able to meet the cute lady behind the Mormon Mom Planner!  I did not get my planner yet because she told me they are coming out with a new one that is perfect for empty nesters…like me!  :)  I can’t wait to see it!  If you love a good planner like I do, check out  the Mormon Mom Planner.  She also has one that is a general planner for those that do not want the “Mormon” part!  :)  They are very reasonably priced, they have lots of room to write and organize your day and they are darling!  Check them out!

After I got back home, I did some laundry and cleaned things up a bit then I went to the Dixie Chicks Concert with my daughter and granddaughter that night!  We went to dinner first and then to a fun concert!  It was outdoors and the weather was beautiful!Dixie Chicks

So that is what I did last weekend…I hope that you were able to do something fun with the ones that you love too!

Happy Labor Day!

I just spent some very fun days with my best friend at a Sewing Retreat!  We went up to the cabin for a few days of S & S.  (Sewing and Shopping!)

We started out by driving up the canyon and it was just beautiful…the leaves are starting to turn colors and the weather was gorgeous!  We went to our new favorite quilt shop in Midway, Utah, called My Girlfriend’s Quilt Shoppe.  We got the fabric to start a new Vintage Christmas Quilt.  Vintage Christmas Quilt  (more…)
