WOW: Travel WIP 6

WOW = WIPs On Wednesdays

Yes, I'm back; just. Jetlagged and still expecting meals delivered to my room...


For me, today still feels like a travel WIP because I haven't even stepped into my sewing studio yet. I'm doing the washing, opening mail and today I hope to download all my photos and check my emails.

I could really do with a few hours sewing, I missed those creative hours spent in my studio. It feels like something's been missing. And I have so many sketches and pictures of things here and there which caught my eye that I know I've got lots and lots to do and create...more WIPs on the way.


This is an image taken inside a hotel elevator, the scrollwork reminded me so much of my own work that I had to have a snap of it!


And this is an all too common pose of mine, looking at details. Here I'm outside the opera house in Vienna looking at some more scrollwork. What can I say? I love details!

Excess Luggage



 I'm thinking about the trip back...enjoying the room service and looking at my luggage.
I started out so well: with my travel backpack and a small case and my strict
'no more than I can personally carry' rule

And now....well.....how did this happen???

It's multiplied

WOW: Travel WIP 5

WOW = WIPs On Wednesdays

If I was at home I'd be working on my new quilt design and actually I do miss my sewing afternoons.
It would be nice to pop into my studio and do some creating inbetween all the travel and eating, but I can't complain as I've spent invaluable time with family....and I haven't seen a spot of housework in weeks

and of course I do love a good country drive with my DH
just taking in the view


and is this the cutest bus stop you've ever seen??
I definitely thought it was blog worthy!


How's your wednesday?

a Quick Hello


Thought I'd just post a quick hello...

We've been driving through the Croatian countryside

it's been very hot 36C!!

but so nice to drive along and admire the lush summer fields
These fields are in Lipik


not forgetting the storks nesting on powerlines!

Greetings From Budapest!

These costume dolls made me pull out my camera.

I always say, experience is more important than photographs...
and then something charming like this catches my eye!


I don't even need to explain what I'm doing here!
Beautiful embroidered linens and laces...

a tour bus completely to ourselves!!


I really enjoyed exploring the city and taking it in, all at a relaxed pace

so many beautiful bulidings, so much grand architecture
so many details that caught my eye


I soaked it all in...but there were still some buildings that had to be snapped.
I want to look them over again and again, later at home.




And for dinner? Gulash of course!
