Trip Trippy Trip

Man, oh Man.  It’s just been impossible to have a regular blogging schedule this past several weeks.  Too much busy work.  I started working on those towels I showed in the last post, but I can’t even manage to finish that little project.  I did, however, make some quick covers for those goofy travel pillows that you see in airports.  My Cool Britannia fabric was burning a hole in my stash.

Travel Pillows

I put a little loop on the top so we can hook them to our suitcases while running through airports.

And there’s a little sleep mask to go along with the set.  That’s for SweetiePie — she loves a good sleep mask.  (The Princess is in Red and the Queen is in Blue!)

Travel Pillows

Covered travel pillows mean vacation time is almost here.  WooHoo! Months ago, we discovered that TheFirstChild would be really busy with rotations this summer, so I thought it would be fun to have a diversion for SweetiePie so she wouldn’t be too lonely.  A Girl Getaway!!!   The ManoftheHouse isn’t going this time — he’ll keep the resident catlets company while we’re gone.  Anyhoo…I’m checking out now — there’s still so much to do around here before we go.  Be good while we’re gone — I’m sure you can guess where we’re going with very little trouble!  ;-D

XOXO,
Anna

(P.S. At some point I’m going to close all comments while I’m gone — the spam levels the last few weeks have been ridiculous!)

(Also, I forgot to add — are you guys on Instagram?  If we can find occasional internet access I might post a picture or two @Thimbleanna.)

  1. re: Spam – install a plugin like Akismet to handle that. :) Also there’s a box under Settings -> Discussion to close comments after X days. I usually close after 14. That handles a lot fo the spam as they tend to hit older posts.

  2. You are so dang clever Ms. Anna – a girl getaway sounds like a fantastic adventure – enjoy and have fun – and those adorable pillows are sure to come in handy – and by the way look so much better than those in the airport :)

    Safe travels Grandma Farmhouse (I just have to say that lol – it sounds so good)

  3. Pip, pip, cheerio, have a great time! Nothing like a good change of scenery at the end of summer.
    I’ll be gone when you get back. *See you in September!*

  4. Anna have a wonderful time!
    The city is looking pretty damn good at the moment post olympics.
    We’re off to France in a couple of days for some sea, sand and fun.

    Can I say – the bike basket liner from one of your previous posts is just too good, I love the bike fabric you found.

  5. Hi Anna….Ok, I’m only a teensy weensy jealous. Have a safe and happy trip, and give my best to the queen and Phil….but not Camilla. I just can’t like her :)

  6. Oh—you’re going to the adorable Life grandson and his Granny! Give them some hugs from me! You’re going to have a fantastic time……

  7. I love the pillows! I have that cool britannia fabric but didn’t know what to make with it.

    I didn’t realise it was a girls trip! That means perhaps I can give you a few more ideas for girl things to do! Places to have hot chocolate and afternoon tea!

    Safe journey!! To Scotland….to Scotland….
