Potpourri

A couple quilt-y things are attracting my attention these days:

• Stitchin' Mission #17 classes are underway, so weekly lessons need thoughtful preparation and prayer. 
• Hand-applique continues to call me, like a siren-song, and I'm steadily making progress on pieces for the Snowflake Medallion quilt. But those 1 cm circles are driving me crazy! I'm needleturn appliqueing them, and have only 72 of them to do! (There must be a better way...)

But what makes those ga-jillion 1 cm circles bearable is that I fondly recall Australia because I'm using the sweet hexagon pin cushion made for me by my Aussie blogger friend, Di.

Thank you, Di.  I miss you.
