Driving in 2013...

...will be a tad more fun in our new Ford Edge (SEL) that we drove home late Saturday.  The color: Mineral Grey Metallic with Charcoal Grey interior.  


What do I have to learn on this Crossover?  The computer system.  I think I'll really like the Voice-activated "stuff".  My phone is already syncing with it so that's a start.  We might be making a little jaunt down to Glendale to Cabela's today ....  good thing there's room in the back...LOL

Below:  a WIP that was started yesterday.  What's it going to be?  I have no idea, LOL. 


Wishing everyone a safe, productive and prosperous New Year.

Hugs.

What a fun car and I love the idea of voice activation for hands free driving. Your new quilt is so fun, love the pups and the dog prints.

Looks like you've got lots of room to haul home fabric in your new car! I think we're going to have to break down and buy something eventually too.
Love the beginnings of your puppy quilt! I have some teddy bear fabric that would be cute with applique...I'll be keeping an eye out to see what it turns into! It'll be cute!

Oh fun! New wheels!! I love my Explorer, but it's got a few years on it now although I still think of it as brand new.

Love your newest projects! And I, too, have a daughter I never thought would sew, and she quilts! It's so fun when we get together, just like when you and Kelli do!

Blessings on your new year, Cindy!

Of course, using a voice-activated system is ridiculously amazing! It only shows what a high-tech car you’ve brought home. It seriously revealed the ‘tech-innocent’ part of me. But all the same, congrats! :D Isn’t that also the model which has the panoramic vista roof? -->Tyra Shortino
