saturday sewing

it was catch up day for the autumn jubilee sew along....one more week or so and this should be a flimsy....this week it was the ever popular leaves, a favorite of mine....

i didn't realize how many autumn theme fabrics i actually had until i started using them....each and every one a microcosm of vast foliage vistas....the middle leaf here is actually from fabric with butterflies on it; the one directly to its left is called "tulip time"...who knew?  looks like autumn to me.  ***  next up is to tie and bind a baby quilt for an october baby.  and with cooler temps, time for some new flannel lounge pants. ****  and do you know this lady?   it's mercy otis warren, a prominent female figure in the establishment of the republic.  the us postal service is considering her for a stamp.  you can help make that happen....simply drop a note of a few sentences to the postal service requesting same...

  1. I’m watching the sew along at the moment. Yours is looking lovely! Good luck with your procedure.

  2. Nice looking leaf blocks. I have a bunch of Sandy Gervais fall prints that I should really use someday. I collected them for a few years, but have no plan.
    A colonoscopy to look forward to this week--what fun (NOT). If you could just show up and have one it wouldn't be so bad, but the prep is the most unpleasant part to me.
