I love October! It's pumpkin season... that spooky time of year when little goblins lurk around the corners. The great pumpkin is dancing around the pumpkin patch. The air is a little cooler, apples are ready to be picked. Cinnamon becomes my favorite ingredient and fall time smell. I no longer have to think, will it be too warm to bake today. It's a great time to take the chill out of the house with baking. I've pulled out all of my favorite pumpkin and fall recipes! It's also time to cozy up the house with some fall decorating..... I'll start with my pumpkin coffee mug.... I'm drinking coffee out of it right now, a cinnamon sugar cookie blend, yum. I've also pulled out all of my quilty Fall items. Let me share a few past pictures with you...

These are just a few of the fun fall items I decorate my house with. All of these patterns are available on
Etsy, Craftsy and also my
website! (There are some cute little widgets you can click on the sidebar to take you instantly to my online stores
) My patterns are fun to do and many of them can be completed in an afternoon, well maybe not the embroidery ones.... Chances are good that you already have fabric in your stash to complete a fall project or two, just in time to decorate for fall! I hope that you enjoyed my little fall picture show and take time to check out my patterns! I'm off to get another cup of coffee in my pumpkin mug....
Happy Fall!
Happy Quilting,
The breeze has a crispness to it and the leaves are beautiful. As Wilson and I take our afternoon walks I am reminded that Fall is here. The familiar smells and sounds are all around us, apple cider, cinnamon, the crunch of the leaves under our feet and the sound of geese honking as they fly south for the winter. (Or so I think they are going south) I thought this block would be perfect for this month. It's called 'Flying in Circles' and features the flying geese block. Past patterns can be found for a small $1.99 fee at my Etsy and Craftsy shops just in case you are just joining the BOM or have missed one. There are only a couple of block left, it will be so much fun to see everyone's Quilt Doodle 2013 BOM quilts! What do you think about having a blog hop to showcase our quilts in January? Those of you who do not have blogs can contact me and I will post your pictures and write up on your 'day'. We have some time to think about it, but please email me and let me know what you think about it! I'm looking forward to hearing from you!
