I'm Going to do Something for Fall

 The weather has definitely changed

and fall is in the air.

There have been lots of blogs written

about the change of season and all the

fall projects that are being worked on.

I've been continuing to work on 

Di Ford's mystery quilt.

The next part just came out,

so I'm actually not behind.

 I'm also still working on my

"Put your money where your mouth is" quilt.

 It's the one I paid $5 to the quilt group

as incentive to get it done.

It's the pattern Home for the Holidays

by Lisa Bongean.

And then there's

A-Z with Ewe and Me,

the block of the month from 

The Quilt Show designed by Janet Stone.

The center is done

 so next month will be the beginning of the borders.

And finally,

there's Noah and Matilda,

 

the applique pattern reproduced and sold by Dawn

of Collector with a Needle.

Here are 6 of the next 8 blocks that I have to applique.

I've been so good about sticking with these 4 quilts.

But this week

with the beautiful fall weather,

I needed to do something fallish.

I decided to do an embroidery pattern

from Crabapple Hill,

Autumn's Harvest Pumpkin.

I had a piece of Onaburg cloth

and thought it would make a great pillow.

The problem is the light box doesn't easily work with it

so it took awhile to trace the pattern.

But it's traced and ready to go. 

I should have picked something I could piece quickly,

 but no, I chose more handwork!

There wasn't much time for sewing this

past weekend.

 There were just more important places to be

 

and special people to share it with.

This week has the potential of being a productive one.

Hope yours is too.

Until Next Time-
