Quilt Time

I hope everyone is enjoying fall. I love the smell of the air and the wonderful times of football, bonfires and lots of fun. The other day the dj's on my fav radio station were trying to explain the phrase"It smells like fall" and just what that smell is. I have to admit it made me stop to think what fall smells like to me. I think of crisp air, very clean smelling with a scent of bonfire and a bit of dampness. What does it smell like to you?

I have been so busy that I apologize I have not been able to keep you all updated. There will be lots of posts coming showing you what I have been working on. Here is a small quilted wall hanging that is in progress and will go on the chocolate wall in the bedroom that my sweetie painted not too long ago. (Yep he's still painting and it's looking good around here :)

I want to do accents of aquas and greens with the chocolate color. This was quite by accident that it became wall art...lol.  I meant this quilt to make it to my etsy shop, but my sweetie saw it and wanted to hang it above the bed. How could I say no? To finish it off, I will make the back of the quilt a sold block of blue and a solid block of lime green with a break of the white in between them and trim it in the lime green.  Pics to follow in a few days.

Here is another closeup. I am loving the solid colors with the abstract fabric for the center block against the pure white sashing.

Don't forget to let me know what fall smells like for you. I leave you with a pic of sweet Buddy enjoying his nap in the sun (sorry it's a bit blurry but I had to take it thru the window so I wouldn't wake him up....so spoiled)

 Oh and that reminds me that I must change my banner to fall now.........

Love,

Connie
