Bath Balloon Fiesta, a quilt by Miyuki Humphries, is smaller than the lovely Blue Ribbon hanging next to it. You'll want to ride in one of these teeny, tiny hot air balloons.

Have you been following Ann Myhre's West Coast journey in her Airstream trailer? (Click here for Part 1: Lil Airstream.)  Each week of her journey she'll be sharing a small project and now for Part 2 from Ann:

"Here is a little bit of my journey this week where I melted wax, recorded the frogs, went winery hopping and boon docking on their vineyards. The latter part of the video I show how to make these colorpods out of old cardboard yarn holders and toilet paper rolls. I Don't throw anything away! hehe. Thanks for coming along on my journey. On to Mendocino today as per Alex Anderson who says it is non-negotiable!"
