more fun....

perfect weather for outdoors so headed to the coast but first a visit to 'busy thimble' shop...repros from floor to rafters...good thing my budget was limited and i had preselected some jo morton indigos, a few pinks, a couple of di ford prints and a nice purple..

awesome peacocks!   and on arrival at cyndi's shop, spied some very tall deep purple hollyhocks strutting their stuff....my grandmother had hollyhocks in her yard and they always remind me of her...then it was onward to pemaquid point, a favorite spot with gentle breezes and sparkling ocean..
after a scrumptious lunch and some relaxation, onward to boothbay harbor and more ocean sights....plus some gently lapping waves...finally into vacation mode after a shocking start of car accident with the rental (yes AGAIN this year) that was not my fault and no injuries, but unnerving as it occurred only 15 min after picking up the rental.  had to switch vehicles and refocus on having fun.....

  1. Beautiful fabrics and lucky you to be where you are! I think it's a good thing the auto accident came before your trip to the quilt shop so you had something better to look forward to.

  3. Argh! What a way to start a vacation! At least the thought of all those fabrics at Cyndi's put you to rest! Beautiful choices. Have fun this week!

  4. Oh my word! My dd and I had the same experience years ago. Picked up a car at Seatac airport at night and about 20 minutes later had a flat on highway that was crammed with traffic. Not fun! So happy that you have been able to move on to having a good time. Maine has been on my bucket list for so very long.
