Finally Fall


Finally Fall!

I've enjoyed the cool mornings and today I spotted a hint of color on my favorite maple trees.  I pulled out this wall hanging from several years ago for the kitchen.  It's only 16" by 24"  and took forever to stitch around all those leaves. 
  Tomorrow is "working in the yard" day.....lots of trimming and weeding and mulching  to do.  It should be beautiful to be outside.
  Just a quick thank you for all the input and ideas on my struggle.  I have only done a bit of scrap piecing for the sashing using some stripes and shirting prints, but I am very happy so far.  I do think it will tone down the mauve and  anchor all the blocks of different sizes. 
  Happy Thanksgiving to my Canadian friends, and have a great weekend to all.
Oh...a reminder about the Wantobe Giveaway.  The next and final 3 weeks are open to everyone, everyday....so Madame Samm says to stop by, leave a comment to enter for the last Big Prizes.
Happy stitching.

Love the colors and, oh my goodness yes, it must HAVE taken a long time to get around those leaves! Kudos for patience and a job well-done!

It's mid-spring here and it might be warm enough for me to take my sweatshirt off - or maybe not! It is usually very warm in Sydney by this time of year!
