Warning: This Post is Picture Heavy
So it's all about fall and things of beauty and here in Missouri the
Ozark Mountains will soon be in their full fall glory, something like
this:
I may have gotten a bit carried away but with Steve gone but I was in full sewing mode!
So I'll start you out with some
"Leaf of Celery"
Which turned into a bunch of "Celery Leaf's"
14 ~12" blocks
"Leafs"
10 ~10 1/2" blocks
10 ~10 1/2" blocks
and then
JUMPING
into the
"Leaf Piles"
24 ~12" blocks
24 ~12" blocks
Underneath them
You might find a surprise
Oh my
some fall flowers
with a green
"Kaleidoscope of Leafs"
So pretty!......
They seem to spin and turn
6 ~10 1/2" Blocks
A Table Runner?
Placemats?
And a few more pictures of the Ozark Mountains
And the finale of it all and my most favorite blocks
A Ka'leaf'oscope of beautiful fall colors
12 ~10 1/2" blocks
As I said.....Steve has been gone for 2 weeks and was supposed to be building me something like this
but I got this for now....
It is most important to have a place to store the tools.
In a few days I
will post some pictures of what we will be living in on our very own
piece of land in the Ozark Mountains!
Thanks for coming over and visiting and for taking your time to look at all the pictures.

ReplyDeleteJees. How did you get all those blocks done? Did you not sleep for two months? They all look amazing. My favourite is the celery leafs. They still have a hint of spring in them, to remind us that spring will come again! They look amazing. I loved the pictures of the mountains too. How lucky are you to live in a place like that! My favourite fall colour..... It has to be red.

OMG what a busy lady. Love all your blocks. The kaleidoscope are wonderful. I love the combination of all fall colours together.

ReplyDeleteYour log cabin blocks are perfect. Don't you just love the colors of fall... You also did a beautiful job with the Kaleidoscope, love the colors. Are the pictures of the lake you go to?? Beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteJane, you are too kind. There is such a funny story behind all the blocks I made. When I first starting "quilting" I thought I knew enough about sewing that I didn't need too much instruction. LOL I didn't know "beans" about anything. All of those poor blocks were all differnt sizes, one turned this way and the next the other way, it was a horrid mess and I nearly threw them all away. About a month ago, I drug them out of the hidey hole and took them all apart and started over. Oh have I learned alot in three years, even how to quilt with a longarm. But thank you so much for your kind words!!
DeleteWow!! You sewed up a storm while he was gone!! All your blocks are amazing!! My favorites are last ones you showed!! Thanks for sharing with us!!!
ReplyDeleteOh wow, everything you showed including the pictures had such beautiful colors in them. I think my favorit fall color would be the golden yellow. Thanks for showing all you talent.

ReplyDeleteRobin, actually, I started sewing the first ones on Sunday and finished that last set last night at 7:00 pm. I am definitely in a sewing mode and am going crazy sewing today too. I also just designed my first pattern and have fabric cut to make it. Anxious to see how it works. Thanks for your nice words.

ReplyDeleteIt is so hard to pick just one color of fall. I like the leaves that are translucent, the orange ones, the red ones, I guess all of them.
ReplyDeleteI'm a new follower. You sure have been prolific while hubby was gone. All stunning projects! I have a difficult time picking a favorite.
ReplyDeleteI gravitate toward pastels, so I had a tough time picking a favorite fall color. My first thought was navy blue. I consider that a fall color. If that isn't considered a fall color, then I'd say red.
ReplyDeleteJeanne, your blocks "leaf" me amazed! Wow. You were definitely in full on sewing mode. lol Love what you have created - especially the kaleidioscope blocks. They're truly stunning.
ReplyDeleteFavourite fall colour? Orange! ;o)
