Because of the pandemic and social distancing, I can safely say that we will be doing plenty of hiking and camping this summer…which is okay! It just means more blog posts with pictures of beautiful Colorado! This past weekend we did an 8 mike hike on Walker Ranch Trailhead which is located near Boulder. The trail was beautiful, plenty of mountain views and wildflowers.

I loved seeing all the wildflowers already blooming, especially the little cactus flowers. And took a few close up photos of the little pollinators!

I love hikes with running water as well.

It was a pretty warm and sunny day, but around 4 miles into the hike is when the thunderstorms rolled in. We hiked a little in the rain, but tried to avoid being in the open spaces when it was lightning.

Colorado really is an incredible state with beautiful mountains and trails. During this pandemic, I feel like I appreciate even more living in this state.

Hello! My name is Julie, I am very crafty and I love to quilt! I currently live in Denver, Colorado, but I was born and grew up in Virginia. My sewing journey began in 2009 where I started making handbags and I have participated in several craft shows/markets in Virginia and Colorado.
I began quilting in 2020, and since then quilting has been my main focus. I have made several quilts from modern, improve, lap quilts to mini quilts. In 2023 I became a member of the Denver Metro Quilt Guild. Besides sewing, in my spare time I love to weave, take photos, bake, hike, ski, attend craft/art shows, and spend time with my husband and my dog Lilly. My blog mostly focuses on my creations and inspirations, but once and awhile, I will blog about my trips and travel adventures. My goal is to share and inspire everyone who is reading. Enjoy!
