Welcome to Creatin' in the Sticks
and
The My Happy Place Row Along.
It's Happy Hour here in the Sticks!
It's Happy Hour here in the Sticks!
And it's "Happy Hour" for my quilt row too.
There's no better place on earth than a tropical beach, the sun setting, and a margarita truck.
Well, for me anyway.
I've never seen a margarita truck, but I think it would be fun and a little bit better than ice cream.
It could drive around playing Margaritaville by Jimmy Buffett.
Put this scene in my backyard and add my family and it would be perfect.
Oh, and a food truck would be nice too.
(this is a hint for another pattern coming soon)
That is my Happy Place.
That is my Happy Place.
Happy Hour
The row finished is 12" x 30"
The pattern is free until September 13th, 2018.

Now that's a party in a row Carla! It certainly takes us all to a happier place!
What a fun row!
Very cute! Perfect for a beach themed or Jimmy Buffet themed quilt.
Very pretty thanks for sharing and the great giveaways. I love, and use Aurifil.

Thanks for the great pattern
What a fun row. Thanks!
There's nothing better than the beach and a cold margarita. Thanks for sharing your row. grinnie1961 at gmail dot com
What a fun row! The flower power van is a great touch!
I love your fun, colorful run design!! Definitely a fun place to be!!
Love your giveaway, thank you
Wouldn't a margarita truck be fun! Those Stonehenge fabrics look great in your row!
Oh, I'm hanging with you. I do like your style. LOL!! Thanks for a fun row!
I love the margarita glass. Such a fun touch.
I wouldn't mind being on one of those beach chairs sipping a margarita.
seems heavenly.
I like the colours
As always it’s 5 oclock somewhere. What a cute block
That margarita truck is a winner! Too cute!
I love it. Margaritaville we are all coming.
That is so cute! I love HeatnBond Lite also! Use it a lot!
Yes, yes, I would like that to be my only worry. LOL Your row is adorable! Thank you so much for designing something so cute. Please don't be offended when I replace the margarita glass with an ice cream treat.
Can hear the waves lapping in the distance and glassing clinking close up.
Yay, it's a Margarita bus! My co-works and I are always saying we need a visit from the Margarita bus after a hectic day. I will have to make this for our room. Thanks!
Great row, Carla!! Reminds me of Jimmy Buffet's Wasting Away in Margaritaville - only much nicer!! LOL
Cute row and great sentiment!
A great row. I think we all need to visit.
I grew up by the beach and that scene looks very familiar to me--the "strips and sauce" truck used to pull up, long before the food truck craze was a thing.
Very cute happy place!!
Love your row! This would be my happy place too.
Very cute row I wish I was sitting in those chairs right now. Thank you for sharing your talent
Your row is a piece of paradise via Jimmy Buffett. I've been a fan of his since before he was world famous. Always puts a smile on your face.
Thats such a fun row! Love it. Thanks for taking the time to create and share!
I love your happy place. Thanks for sharing
Oh yes, send the truck my way! lol Too cute!
You always have cute patterns.
As always you are Awesome with the designes you create. Thanks for sharing. Elizabeth, Silverdale WA
Love your block. Since I live inland, I think I'd prefer an ice cream truck as my food truck! It's been in the 90's this week and I'm sick of it!! :-)
Thanks so much for joining this QAL and allowing us to enjoy your creativity!!

Thanks so much for a fun lively row
This is such a fun block that makes me feel like singing "Margaritaville" and putting my toes in the sand. Love it!
Very creative & fun Row!! lol Looove it!!
Now I've got that song playing in my head. And you have me wanting to go to the beach now. Love your row. Thanks for the pattern.
Great row! I love the beach. Thanks for participating in this event.
Love this row! Thank you for sharing.
Your Happy Place makes me smile! What a delightful design and colors. I want that kind of place!
What a fun row for a happy quilt. Thank you for sharing it.
Such a fun applique scenic row you have designed! Any time I get to visit the Oregon Coast, I love walking along the beach and finding shells. Another favorite is to sit and watch the waves hit the rocks and just enjoying the time together with family. Thank you for sharing and designing. Have a great day!
Perfect way to end a day. Thanks for the cute pattern.
What a fun little row! Here in Michigan, we have the "Cheeseburgers in Paradise" Festival every year in the tip of the thumb, Caseville (about 90 minutes from my home). Jimmy Buffet has been invited for the past however many years they've held it, but he's never shown his face. I think he would love it, though, because everyone dresses like they're in the islands, the vibe is very "chill" and casual, and it's a lot of fun. Thanks for a great row to commemorate fun times!
Fun row! I bet a lot of people would love a margarita truck!
Yummy! Margaritas at the beach.....that is a Happy Place! Love the block and looking forward to making it!
So beautiful row.Great design!!
Love the beach scene!
Another great row. I'm really enjoying this blog hop. Thank you
The margarita glass could also make a cute mug rug. rozz01atcoxdotnet
Love it! Thank you for this row!
Love the margarita truck - so fun!
A Margarita truck? Sign me up!
This is definitely one of the best blocks of the row along. Thank you for sharing your creativity.
Carla, who wouldn't love this pattern. It's such a fabulously fun row filled with dreams of paradise and that glass on top of the camper.. sheer genius. You always amaze me with your creative mind and fun patterns. Thank you again for participating in the row along, it wouldn't be as fun at all without you. :)
Now THAT is my kind of party machine. What a delightful row you have created. Thank you for sharing your time, your talent and your pattern.
What a wonderful place your row takes us. Thanks so much for the pattern/
As much as I adore a good Margarita, I have never thought about a Margarita truck! Wouldn't that be heavenly to order any flavor of gourmet Margarita your heart desired, then take it to your backyard for sipping? Yep, sunny days, beaches, umbrellas and Margaritas spell Happy Hour to me too!
LOVE LOVE LOVE it! My favorite things as well!
Love your happy place.
Very happy row! Party time!
great song, it will be in my head at least half the day !! Your row is fabulous. The beach is one of my Happy places for sure. Thanks for joining the row a long.
What a fun row. Love it!
Hi Carla! I agree, the margarita truck is a fabulous idea. Adults would come running instead of kiddos. You could use the plastic glasses, offer the rim ringed with salt or sugar depending on the type of margarita. And offering it near the beach with food trucks handy for those munchie times would be super. I love your row for this fun QAL. I want to know how I can join in with your November blog hop? I'm sure details will be coming on your website soon, so I'll keep watching. ~smile~ Roseanne
Ha! I want to go to your happy place....FUN!!!!!!
This would easily be my happy place especially if it was in my backyard. Jimmy and Zac Brown are singing in my head. Thank you.
Love it! Please send the margarita truck to my street, stat! And, yes, a food truck is a great idea.
Thanks for sharing!
This is so fun!!! Love the beach setting and the fun vehicle :)
Such a beautiful view!!
Thanks for the block!
Your Happy Place row is delightful, looks like a place of making memories. Thanks for special giveaway.
