Sitting with my feet up.....

and this was the view from my chair.


and I read this book.....


and stitched a few hexagons together....



and after posting my hexagon picture realized I didn't sew hexagon points to two of my sections, but that is ok....I am still playing with this pattern. I was inspired by the hexagon quilt that Linda is making over at this blog, Plain and Simple  http://simplylibby.blogspot.com/2011/07/stair-treads-redux-finally-resolution.html

Did take a ride and saw a couple quilt barns.



well, actually this one is a quilt "post office".



This post office was in Tustin, MI and the initials in the corner were OTG, so I am guessing it was Old Tustin Guild.  I am going to see if I can find them online. 

All-in-all, this was a great vacation with good weather, warm breezes, good food, family and friends and just some good old "down time".  

Hope this has rejuvenated me and I will be posting more quilting projects soon.
