Isn’t it funny how the summer can be the busiest time of year? Of course, there are always those

Pippa, Thank you for this idea. I'll be on vacation this summer and I think I will take some things along and make 5x7 landscape quilts, maybe using found objects from the trip and fabric. Stitch up a sketch in the afternoons while resting. What fun!

I keep several projects going at a time - something that is involved, time and concentration intensive (a portrait quilt), a quick pick up (knitting socks), little time (make fabric paper for future use), several hand sewing projects (little landscapes, multi media art quilts etc), and I also work on multiple quilt tops in stages (cutting, pinning, sewing). If it is small enough to fit in one of my tote bags (about 12 x 14) it travels with me for opportune moments

While I don't always have sewing stuff with me, I do ALWAYS have a sketch pad and pencil, in the car, in my purse, everywhere. I can jot down ideas, or work on designs or just sketch... and some do turn into my next piece of work.
