Thoughts of Autumn

Autumn has arrived in the Ozarks and the trees are beautiful with their fall colors. It's been a busy few weeks at work and I haven't done as much quilting as I wanted but this weekend I plan to spend a lot of time in my sewing room and get some projects finished.

I've been looking through patterns and fabric getting ideas for the Fall themed mini swap and I'm so excited to get started on the project. I love the fall colors and pumpkins but I don't celebrate Halloween so I will probably do a more traditional quilt unless my swap partner has other ideas.

I'm met some great ladies through the Quilting Gallery and am glad that I found the site. I've swapped fabric and quilt magazines with some wonderful new friends in other countries and have enjoyed see the beautiful fabrics made in other lands. I can't wait to get started making things with those fabrics!

My lovely daughter and precious grandson are coming for Thanksgiving and I will be so glad to see them. My son Dane was here for two weeks in Sept. and I loved visiting with him. He's in the military so I don't get to see him very often but hopefully next summer I'll be able to visit him in Tucson. I'm sure I'll have to shop hop while I'm there, surely they have quilt shops lol.
