Welcome, Fall!

Ah, I'm so happy it's Fall. Fall is my absolute favorite. And I'm happy it came on time this year, since it seemed so short the last couple of years. We live in a very campy-looking neighborhood with a ton of old trees so it looks amazing here in the Fall when all the leaves are all yellow and everywhere. Love it. I made this little pin cushion today. Actually it's not little, it's pretty huge for a pin cushion, but I'm in love with it. I got the pattern from the Spring issue of Quilts & More magazine. It's an Anna Maria Horner pattern and I used Sandi Henderson Fabrics, which I ordered online from Fresh Squeezed Fabrics. (VERY fast delivery, a sister in Christ and a fellow Coloradan! I'm happy to support her business when I can.) Whew, was that enough links for you? OK, gotta go change a diaper...or two :)

  1. That is the cutest pin cushion I've ever seen. As for the size...I've always wanted a really big one anyway because I have so many projects going at the same time and need a ton of pins!

    Is that Farmer's Market fabric? I also love the site you got it from. I will buy from her as often as possible as well! Thanks for all the links!

  5. I'm not sewing anything right now either. I keep feeling worse instead of better. At this point, I'd have to get better extremely fast to be able to go to the market on Sunday. I wouldn't mind a few prayers on my behalf. I haven't been this sick since I had the flu when we lived here the first time.
