Hello Fall

HELLO fall! 

Even in Houston we've been enjoying some cooler (not exactly cool) temperatures and subsequently the great outdoors. 

But I have squeezed in a little stitching time. 

As everyone should.

Seriously lovely fabrics that NEED to be decorating someone's house this fall... 

Super skinny strip coasters.

Random echo straight line quilting.

A few gorgeous gourds. 

Autumnal awesomeness. 

Actually my house has been decorated for fall/halloween/thanksgiving for weeks. 

Might have jumped the gun a little on that one.

And my first rag wreath!

These could be a very addictive thing.

Like possibly more addictive than Candy Crush...

Possibly.

I hope you are enjoying the season too! 

Both are in the shop. 

Matching Pillows

Hope you all had a great weekend. 

I ended up watching the two Iron Man movies.

Awesome. 

When the first one ended I asked the hubs to turn the second one on right then. 

He said he was too tired.

WHAT?!

Made me wait a day and give him a massage for running out and getting it at Redbox as Netflix was giving us a poor quality image... 

Aside from that, I did some FUN quilting.

Sometimes small projects are sooooo satisfying. 

Also in Give Thanks by Deb Strain for Moda.

I love fall colors.

One was a simple patchwork with straight quilting.

It's compliment is an applique leaf with swirl quilting. 

Have I ever mentioned how much I love contrast?

Next to their "friend" the runner I made the week before.

Complete with envelope closures.

They are currently in the shop.

Fallen Leaves Quilt and Pattern

Have you seen this new line?

Lots of cuteness.

Applique table runner in Give Thanks by Deb Strain for Moda. 

Modernized leaves. 

Simple enough, no?

Some swirly quilting.

A little straight stitching too.

And done.

I LOVE applique. 

I know, you already knew that... : )

And, for your sewing pleasure, a pattern.

In the shop.
