Quiltfest

Today the pictures are the lake at my campsite, which is lovely and the river near Quiltfest. I made it to the show quicker than I expected although the weather really didn't help. Surprisingly there was only one really steep hill on the route too. With a little help from Tet I found where I should be and found somewhere to park. I'm glad I made it as there were a lot of familiar faces there and I got to catch up with a lot of friends. I think I might have gained a few new ones too.

Of course I had to do a little bit of shopping but with most of the traders only taking cash it kept me restrained. A couple of fabrics with silver on and some kimono fabrics from Susan Briscoe. She did have some full bolts which I would haved loved for making clothes, but I managed to resist this time.

Now I am finishing the day as I started it. Snug in bed in my van. I really love it. I've had a very nice evening sewing and watching Mobey Dick. I wasn't that taken with the film but it wasn't taxing so worked well to sew to. I also played with the oven some more. I managed to make a very hot cottage pie with an unbrowned top but figured out how to heat a tinned pudding in it. I think I need to spend more time in here cooking. Next stop Cibi quilters, see you in the morning folks.
