Finally... Fall...

I just can't stand it anymore.  The temps have cooled down to a "Fall-ish" 85 to 89 degrees during the day (OK - remember, while that may be summer temps for some, that is 20 deg cooler than our highs just two weeks ago and all summer - 3 months - long).  Leaves are turning colors (OK - they just dried up over the summer as a defense mechanism against the extreme heat).  

I officially declare that early Fall has arrived in Oklahoma - Fall is by far my favorite season.  I try not to rush this season by starting to take all my Fall stuff out in July or August or March (ha!).  You can't appreciate things if you have too much of them.  But it is time now.  The other sure sign that Fall is arriving?

YES! - the Fall issues of magazines are arriving in the book stores and candy corn can be found at most stores.  

So, I was inspired to start on my Fall quilts.  Here is just a tease of the hand-dyed Autumn Leaf quilt ... pulled it off the UFO shelf to see what was left to do on it.  It WILL be completed this month!

And I pulled out fabrics for my Autumn Wreath quilt and started cutting the circles out.  

This week, the boxes of Fall decorations and quilts come out and I start to decorate.

I SIMPLY love Fall...

Blessings,
