Taking Out My Vintage Camper

Last weekend I went camping in my little vintage trailer and I was so happy to set it all up using some of the pretty things that I had made last year.  Here is what it looks like on the inside and I've put out one of the little table toppers in the seating area.

Here is what it looks like close up.  If you'd like to see it in the original post when I first made it, click here. 

Looking the other direction, you can also see the vintage throw that I made to bring with me.  I like using reds and teal colors when I make things for the camper. 

I used Bonnie & Camille's Vintage Holiday fabrics for this quilt.  Here's the original post with more info here.

Outside of the camper, I have red chairs to match and cute little teal colored tables that I picked up at Target.  One of my friends gave the pitcher and glasses to me for camping.  They look so fancy, but they're made from plastic so they don't break. 

My next goal, to camp at a site with electricity and bring some sewing.  :)

Vintage Holiday Quilt #4

I've been working on some of the UFO's (unfinished objects) in my sewing room during this time of quarantine from the Corona virus.  There's quite a few in there, but at least one more is done! 

A couple of weeks ago I finished this Charm Square quilt that I had started about a year and a half ago.  The fabric came in a monthly sampler box called Sew Sampler from the Fat Quarter Shop.  I cut the charm squares in half and sewed them into rows and then put borders in between the rows. 

It is certainly not a hard quilt to make, and I wanted something to go in my vintage trailer.  I love these colors and this fabric called Vintage Holiday from Bonnie and Camille. 

For the quilting, I quilted stars and swirls onto the quilt.  I did it on my domestic machine and it did take a while to get all of those stars on it. 
I'm really happy with how it came out and I'm looking forward to summer to do some camping.  Hopefully campgrounds will re-open by then!  :)
