I have been inspired by all the beautiful fall quilts showing up on quilting blogs. I found the gorgeous Thomas Kincaid fabric on the right at Joanns, then pulled some fabrics from my stash that I can pair up with the main fabric. I bought the leaf print and the light yellow stripe for some variety. Now I will wait for inspiration to strike! I already have an idea that involves appliqued leaves.
I have also seen some very fun fall quilts using whimsical fabrics. While at Joanns, I picked up a few pieces of Debbie Mumm's fall line...
...and started playing! This will be a smaller wall quilt. I have lots of ideas for this one, including turkeys, squirrels, leaves, sunflowers, pumpkins.........
I have so many quilt projects going; I am not one to sit down and make a quilt. I prefer to make bits and pieces at a time...variety spices up my sewing life! I am hoping in January to start machine quilting the five tops that are ready to go! For now, I am having fun with the creative process of all my WIPS.
Here is one last picture of my carrot harvest. These are so crisp and yummy! And there are more in the garden! Hip Hip

Wow, you scored some gorgeous fall fabrics! The floral prints in the first picture that you are going to put w/ the black sashing reminds me of some Almish quilts I've seen. You are, however, way more motivated than me-------an inspiration, that's what you are!
Yummy carrots too.
I love that scarecrow fabric and the blocks you are making with it!
