Quilting on Vacation (1 of 3)
"Circles II" is at the point where it needs to be quilted and finished off. It was too big to take on our summer trip. So I pulled together a different color palette, pressed new circles from my dotted fabric stash and packed up threads with other supplies/tools in anticipation of some productive time between family activities. (A little hint I picked up along the way: If you are traveling by plane and are concerned about packing scissors, take a small case of dental floss instead. The edge used to cut the floss works on thread just as well.)
I have been working on “Circles
II”- my second wall hanging of appliquéd circles, done in the blue-green/green-blue
color range. At one point, as I was sorting circles, they were casually thrown
together and I thought: “there’s the
inspiration for a my new vacation project”.

For this project I'm working with larger blocks, and more sizes for the appliquéd pieces. Still trying for the perfect circle...
