A View of My Life - Quilt and Other Things

The Weekend - Part 3, The Wrap Up

It was a great road trip - short but sweet.  I headed out Friday evening and came back Sunday afternoon. 

Hard to believe, this is my luggage pile for a day and a half - only another quilter would understand.



The coolest thing piece of luggage is the ArtBin rolling tote. It was a second prize award in the Midland Michigan Historical Society quilt contest a few years back.  I can fit a ton of tools, fabric and supplies in it. 

Here's a tip for keeping projects organized and recycle at the same time.  Rather than buying plastic storage project boxes, I use shoe boxes with flip tops.  They stack, they are sturdy & reusable.

Even with all of this in the back of the Element, I managed to fit in some plants for the backyard planters.  Got them planted up Sunday afternoon.

  1. Had to smile at your pile of luggage!

    Did you paint your outdoor setting, or did it come in those colours? Either way, I love the colour scheme.
