Silk Path

I decided to move the Silk Path project forward, as long as I am in the mood to move things along, even if it is only a small movement.

I searched my own blog, and found that Bonnie Hunter’s Silk Path pattern was my choice for Karen Brown’s Declutter Challenge January 2025.

So, in fine tradition, I started it a year ago, and I am moving it forward a year later.

I left off with these two bags of strip piecing; very happy to be using up scrap stash.

Now I have 61 scrappy blocks.

True to Bonnie Hunter style, there is a lot more piecing to do.

I like what I see.

Have fun and carry on!

Beez Update

I am skipping the New Year’s resolutions.

I am not too bad at keeping them, but I just want to wing it this year.

Figure it out as I go.

I do intend to move some projects forward, if not finish them.

One of those is the Beez By Tricia Cribbs Embroidery Design.

This is where I left off back in October 2025:

The pattern that I have includes nine stitcheries, but no ideas or instructions for what to do with them.

I thought I would jump-start myself by stitching a narrow black border around each block.

I really like how that defines the blocks!

So now I have moved this project forward. One resolution complete. Ha, ha!

Have fun and carry on!

Cross Country Vacation Sept./Oct. 2025-Post 30

Going Home

The Hubster and I spent the last night of our vacation in Pinedale, Wyoming.

I would love to come back for a visit someday, but we were focused on home. No more puttering around.

*Clicking on a photo will give you a closer look!

When we arrived at the hotel, we were in the midst of one wicked lightning, thunder and rain storm. I loved it!

The next morning, we had an early and hearty breakfast at the Wrangler Cafe, and began the long drive home.

Pinedale, Wyoming

Two of the things that keep drawing me back to Wyoming are the beauty and ruggedness of the state.

All of the photos in this post are taken with my phone camera through the car window while the Hubster was driving.

It is early October.

This storm, barely out of Pinedale, was looking mighty impressive!

Now our drive home just became a lot longer! This was ice, and it was slow going. We had a real concern that this road out was going to be closed.

Once we made it out of that storm, we did have to change our route.

The wind picked up. Really picked up!

Due to the winds, the road was closed and we had to turn around and retrace our steps (not too far, thank goodness).

The next route we chose, the road was closed to certain vehicles, but our sized vehicle was allowed to drive it even with the heavy winds.

We were beginning to wonder if we were ever gonna make it out of of this state!

But we did.

I will be back!

I love Wyoming!

See the world around you!
