about a month ago, bonnie announced she would be featured in an upcoming issue of Australian Homespun and debuting a new scrappy pattern. well, once i heard the word "pattern," i scoured the web to find a store and the issue. Erica's in Indiana was taking preorders, so i put in my order and today it finally arrived! once again, bonnie has not disappointed at all! in addition to bonnie's pattern, there are some other goodies in this issue too. to subscribe to this magazine is prohibitively expensive, but i am enjoying looking at the ads and new pattern ideas. today was the perfect day to receive it; the weather is nearly unbearably hot and humid, very oppressive, good to laze around and flip through. we did go to the beach this morning but it was too hot to stay, no cool breeze at all. **** the room repair is one day away from completion, not sure WHICH day it will be though. i am getting ready to scour and dust once it is finished; i washed my new curtains today getting ready to iron and rehang. in the interim, i've got 33 amish pinwheel blocks done, exactly half of what i need for the quilt top. i'm using some of my cherrywood hand dyes, lusciously soft and colorful fabrics. mmm, mmm, good!
