    Default I took my sewing machine camping for the first time this weekend

    Inspired by others on this board, I took my sewing machine camping for the very first time this weekend. It was awesome!!! The first day I worked outside, but it was just way too hot. A camper a few spaces down was sewing in her trailer, so I did the same the following day. I am working on Angela Walters tikki tote pattern. My goal is to make 5 for our women's gift exchange at church this Christmas.

    Thank you so much for all the kind compliments. I really like this pattern; my first time attempting it. It looks more complicated than it is
    It is so very hot right now here in Kentuckiana. I think we will postpone our Sept trip to late October in hopes that we can spend a little more time outside the trailer.
