For pop up camping, kayaking, mallows browned to perfection in the fire, sunscreen, and good times with friends.
Now to find a sewing machine that will fit into the pop-up and is solar powered. Hmmm.

































Yeah for roasted marshmallows and kayaking! we got our kayaks out this weekend. Where do you like to go?

A solar powered sewing machine... yes please! That would be the best of both worlds!

There is nothing like sitting by a camp fire, chatting, eating smores, and just enjoying eachother. We have decided to put in a second fire ring closer to our back door for small family wiener roasts, we will still use the one in the way back yard for big family fires.

Sounds like the perfect time for hand-piecing to me!

That sounds so delightful! We are hoping to go camping this summer, and I plan on taking handwork. A solar powered sewing machine would be awesome!

Penny, I am so happy spring/summer is finally here... we had our first bout of severe weather tonight... it felt so good!
Have fun camping and kayaking....solar powered sewing machine is a must (patent that idea...ha). I picked up the new copy of Stitch magazine and saw your stuff... I love that wall hanging- Soooo cute! I follow your blog regularly and I absolutely love your creativity and uniqueness... Congrats on the publishing!

once our youngest isn't 2 (or 3, or 4, who knows?!?) we plan on renting a pop-up camper. she needs to hurry up and get bigger!

Sewing machine w/ solar power...hm...might be more affordable to cross over to the dark side (like me) and take up hand work! Too scary? Give it a try, it's addictive.

would a treadle machine take up too much space? although, i love knitting by the campfire. it seems extra cozy then. that is a fantastic photo, by the way.
