Yesterday I had a flash of horror! I was musing about it being the first of November when I realised I hadn't sent off my
Remarkable Symposium class registrations that are due on the eighth! I dropped everything and sat down to it.

| Ready to Send - that's a wild pig ready to cut out in the background for my FIL's quilt. |
Symposium is a bi-annual quilting event in New Zealand where they gather national and international tutors for a week of classes and lectures, they have huge exhibitions, lots of fun happy hours and gala dinners and, of course, a merchant's mall. I'm sure it doesn't rival the huge events in the USA but for little 'ol NZ, it's a big deal.
I missed out two years ago, but circumstances are more conducive this time around and I'm off to Queenstown in April!!
I've been mulling over which classes to take for ages but in the end I put my name down for:
Celtic Cutwork with
Yvonne Brown
Art Quilt - Line Dancing with
Jeanette Deniicolis Meyer
Pattern Play with
Jane Sassaman
Please, oh please may I get my first choices!!!!
And just because I got round to it, here is the piggy block from the first pic all fused up.
