Schnibbles Gentle Art quilt using Little BLACK DRESS

I'm joining a parade ... that is if it is not too late to join Sinta's  Schnibbles parade this month .

I have had these 2  little  Black Dress charm packs in my stash just waiting for the perfect quilt to come along and I found it !  I am using some Kona bone fabric for the background and the black floral for my border  that I also had in my stash ..

These are addictive and so fun to make . I have made only 8 so far but I am sure I can have this darling little quilt done by the end of the month.

Camping on the beach at Capitola and progress on Easy Summer Breeze quilt

                                     Hope everyone had a Wonderful Mother's Day !!!

We hooked up our tent trailer last Wednesday and camped at New Brighton Beach  at Capitola , California.  Weather was just perfect !

      That is our truck & tent trailer at our campsite . It was so nice to be able to walk right over to the showers & bathroom.

 While there we went to Gayle's Bakery one morning for  coffee & a pastry .  WOW!  What a selection they had !

This was a table they had there ! Oh how I would love to have this table ;-D

Of course no trip is complete without going to ZELDA"S for Thursday Lobster night. Yes I ate this whole thing and it was only $12.99 !!!!!

We also drove down to Carmel 1 day for breakfast and I had a Lobster, crab & shrimp omelet ! Hmmmm!  

                                  I need to catch up on my Easy Summer Breeze quilt 
 

                    I have ironed all of my blocks and have started trimming them to 6 1/2" Square
