September is National Sewing Month so I consider
it a great time to end my summer break from creating and get back to it.
We’ve enjoyed several long weekends traveling with
and without our camper and it won’t end until mid-November. I’m adjusting my daily schedule to allow time for sewing…which I have missed terribly.
One of our upcoming trips is to attend an
Airstream rally in St. Augustine. I’ve
learned that a couple of dinners will be provided by others but we have to
bring our own plates, flatware, etc. I
think a camper-related tote would be appropriate to carry those items.
I’ve selected this pattern
Miss June
by Loft Creations
Stephanie Dunphy’s patterns are my favorite. I’ve made several bags from her book Uncommonly Corduroy. You can find the Miss June pattern on sale at
Connecting Threads.
These are the fabrics I chose
The camper print and paisley are On the Road Again
by Katie Doucette for Wilmington Prints.
The flamingo print is Roam Sweet Home by Kris Lammers for Maywood
Studios.
And to get back into the swing of things…I’m
committing this to be my One Monthly Goal hosted by Patty at Elm Street Quilts.
I hope you all have had a great summer and everyone in the U.S enjoy
this long weekend!
