RV Camping Trip

October 12, 2007 · 4 Comments

Well we had our last RV trip before the winter and it was cut short due to a bit a snow :(

BUT the four days we did have were gorgeous!!! We parked right on the beach, had a campfire, hiked to Exit Glacier & went to the Sealife Center. Here are a few pics.

Here is Exit Glacier:


This is the amazing beach we camped on:


At the sealife center we caught a pic of an octopus:

@hoganfe AMY BUTLER PLEATED CHENILLE SNOWMAN PATCHWORK BAG

October 8, 2007 · 3 Comments

don’t you always wish you had brought
a larger holiday bag with you…
that is why I love this cutie -

pleats on the side tie up
when you want a regular tote &
when you untie the sides it expands
to give you tons of room!

Amy Butler & the winter season prints
are amazing together…
the fluffy chenille is added fun!

thanks,

mary

came from a pattern by Amy Butler

BUT with an awesome twist

the ends are turned up with spunky buttons added…

several different Joel Dewberry ‘Manzanita’ prints

were used to create this ruffled cutie!

to the center ruffled flower…
