I have been very busy lately and haven’t really had anything to write about for awhile. I have been busy with my quilting. The most recent news is that we have traded in our large 5th wheel camper and bought a new small motor home. It is a Navion IQ by Itasica – here is a link, if you go to it you can see some photo’s of it http://www.winnebagoind.com/products/itasca/navion-iq/index.php our model is the 24CL, it had more storage than the other one and we didn’t need the bench seat that turned into an extra bed – also it looked uncomfortable! Now to find space for all that is needed on a regular basis, dishes, pot’s, towels, the list goes on and on. I am finding though that there is plenty of storage space and even though it is smaller we actually had too much stuff in the 5th that we didn’t need and didn’t use but had “just in case”. This unit has no slides and is sometimes referred to as “skinny winnie”
it will take a little time to get use to but I think we can manage just fine.
I will not really have room for tons of quilting supplies but the neat thing about mainly hand piecing and applique and hand quilting is that you don’t need a lot of supplies to turn out quilts. I will have my hand work — Dear Jane and Dutch Treat and my smaller quilting hoop with whatever small quilt I am quilting and that should be plenty – tuck in a small bag of supplies and I will be ready. I might actually be able to finish this second DJ in less time than the first one!
We will most likely take the motor home next weekend to try it out and see if we need to make any adjustments to where items are stored and I will take some photo’s then to post.
