    Anna, I am a monogamous stitcher and quilter. I have two quilts going at one time. One in my sewing room and one for the open sew I attend once or twice a month. I am proud to say, that after 5 years of quilting my WIPs, I am able to start a new quilt once I finish one of the two WIP quilts I have. Most folks cannot conceive of this concept. LOL. For my cross stitch, I sew on one at a time, too. Since I work, I do not have loads of time to work on it, but at night and on weekends.

    Hi Anna! Love the cannon Beach photos! I'm glad you both had a relaxing time. Center Diamond is a fantastic fabric shop! I love the fabric/quilt shops along the Washington and Oregon Coast. I feel your pain with the potholes. I apologize to my car every time I accidentally go thru one. Take care. Marion in Gresham.

    I love all your UA-cam videos but this you dropped yesterday holds a special place in my heart. I’ve wanted for years to attend the Sister’s Outdoor Quilt show and after moving to mountain west five years ago, the plan was to realize my dream. We were fortunate enough to secure a campsite right in downtown Sister’s for this year’s 50th show!
    Yesterday, I spent tireless hours securing additional reservations for Beachside SP, Rockaway, Canon and Tillamook areas! Now, I need to research all the great quilt shops along the travel route! I’m sorry I won’t be able to attend quilt classes & sit & sew this year but that gives me an excuse to repeat show another year. Thanks for shoulder love of creative textile crafting and quilt roadie adventures!

    The peace of the water and waves is my favorite Thank you for taking us with ❤ I’m determined to Journal my sewing and hand stitch this year.. I have all these planners and Journals and maybe do one or two pages then boom the years over 😢. Well thanks to a UA-cam video today I learned the difference between the two….and bet it applies to your tracking also…In your cross stitch You PLAN. You use a planner then when you quilt you can Journal tell about the process as you go along……and heavens NO your not OLD. This world changes hourly

    Yes, I think we all would like to actually work on and finish what we already have. It is tempting to go into quilt shops! I’ve been very good recently about not buying anything more because I’m at max capacity in my home. So if I buy something, I have to get rid of something and I love all my projects too much to get rid of any of them! This mindset (reality) has worked for me.

    • @quiltroadies1695

    It’s sounds like you had a special little getaway trip to Canon Beach, how beautiful it is. The Center Diamond looks like a great quilt shop, I can’t imagine walking in and not making a purchase! The Denim and flannel runner is a wonderful idea, loaded with memories. ♥️ The idea of a designated quilt is an interesting one, I will have to ponder that. Thanks for the visit and sharing your beautiful photos.

    My daughter in law just retired before Christmas and she’s been on Pinterest a lot…😂sending me ideas of things to make (like I need help) my sewing room could double as a fabric store. But tell anyone 😂
    My granddaughters have already got orders in for next Christmas 😮 knitted socks…. Good thing I love knitting. Quilts to make, wool projects and embroidery projects glad we have snowy cold cold weather. So I don’t venture out of my sewing room very far.. just for nourishment and sleep. How do people survive without projects 🤷🏻‍♀️ Thanks for the visit. ❤

    We love Cannon Beach also. My hope is to get there and further south to see the whales. I love whales and their migration trip. Center Diamond is an always stop for me too. This last trip I bought the Cannon Beach fabric kit. I think I’ve had the pattern for seven or more years thinking I would find fabric. Well, it took me seven plus years to realize, just buy the fabric, at the same store. My wishful thinking of quilting someday the design. Thanks for the tip to back the cotton before appliquéing down. See you on Stitch Roadies and maybe someday at Cannon Beach. I delicious and outside light infused place to try is Pelican Brewing across just a block or two south of Center Diamond. The sandwiches are fine for two meals and the chowder was loaded with fish and clams.

Love the pictures of the beach! Looks like you guys had a wonderful time!! I've ordered my fabric for the block contest and for the postcard challenge. I'm getting ready for the big show LOL! The way time flies, it will be here before we know it and you have fun things to do before QA and the quilt show even get here LOL. Busy, busy, busy! 🐝🐝🐝Hugs from NE Ohio.

    Loved this video! I'm on the east coast however in 2018, I was in Portland for my sorority convention and a side trip was to Cannon Beach. Not knowing anything about it, we stood on the beach and I said "this is Goonies!" Then we saw the sign....thanks for renewing my memory. The photos in the beginning of your videos were amazing and your presentation is so calming to sit and listen. Thanks for remembering the fires and those victims. I watch the news and cry/pray for all of them.

    What a special Table Runner you've made Anna. It will be much loved and appreciated I'm sure. Love the sea creatures and coast photos. What a horrendous time for those living in the LA region and also all war torn areas of homes instantly torn to rubble leaving so many homeless and with treasures lost. You can't replace sentimental objects just hold on to memories.

    As far as journaling, I’d like to create a “picture book” of all the quilts I’ve made. I actually have at least one picture of every quilt I’ve ever made! I’m not sure exactly how I want to do it but it’s really fun to think about.

    I remember taking the drive on that “sunset highway” about 35 years ago. My parents took the train from the Midwest. We drove to the coast from Spokane Washington and south to Oregon and took the road inland. I was like you with my head out the window. But the road was glistening from the snow melt and I remember that it looked like a silver ribbon we were driving on. Love to think about it when one of your ROADIE videos come on !!! You inspire me with projects. Done and undone. Keep on truckin.

    Oh good coffee with Anna. You are absolutely an enabler for me. I loved all of the beach pictures. The picture of the huge rock brought back fun memories of Cannon Beach. I used to go there with my sister and her littles which believe me they are no longer little. We are less than an hour from the Gulf and we never over there. I love to feel the sand in my toes and Roger hated the sand. The ying and yang of marriage.
