A lovely Fall day

Our pine trees have grown so much that I had to go to the end of the driveway to take this picture. I prayed no one saw me as I was in my indoor clothes that one may call pajamas...
These colors on this tree just makes my heart sing.
I have an entire tote full of Fall fabrics. Trees, leaves,acorns,grasses are all in there. This is a problem for me as I want to make the perfect quilt from them but do not want to use them in error. Sigh.....

I used a link on Face Book and bought this pattern last night. I printed out the 13 pages...yes thirteen pages. I prefer to work off a chart not lines and lines and more lines of abbreviations. Anyway I started this last night and finished it this morning. I lost my place a few times. And since I need to make 35 of these motifs, I need to use stitch markers. But I am loving how it looks. The next motif will be much smoother. I am using Caron Simply Soft in Victorian Rose. This yarn is so soft and wonderful but it splits all the times. I have made 8 Corner to Corner afghans for Christmas presents using this yarn for the last few months.

Christmas Lights done!

I used Autumn colors in my Christmas Lights. I will call this quilt my Fall Lights. I love it! The borders added so much pizazz to it. They frame it perfectly. I cannot wait to quilt it.

Here it is without borders. I started assembling this morning at 7:00 a.m. and I was done at 11:30 a.m. I liked the quilt but was not IN Love with it at this point. I really do like "on Point" settings. Seems as if you need less blocks to get a bigger quilt!

Here is a closeup of the fabrics I used.
