Autumn is one of my favorite seasons. When the leaves start changing their colors our world is set aglow. So when I discovered Bonnie Hunter's Appalachian Autumn quilt wallhanging pattern - I was in love.
Bonnie Hunter is great at making scrappy quilts. Since I've been on a mission to use my stash and scrap fabrics and to finish my UFOs, Bonnie's patterns are definitely right up my alley. Although making this wallhanging doesn't help my UFOs mission, it did put a small dent in my stash. Digging through my stash fabrics I discovered I had plenty of fabric on hand to make this beauty. I had everything on hand, no cash outta my pocket. Win - win!
Since autumn is in full swing I pushed to make this wallhanging ASAP - I completed this in less than a week. Today was a chilly, but beautiful sunny day so as I finished sewing on the binding I was anxious to hang Appalachian Autumn on my front porch.
Here I go again - this is one of my favorites! LOL
I'll leave it on my porch until after Thanksgiving, but now I think I'd better work on a Christmas wallhanging for the next holiday. Well, the weather perfect for spending my time sewing. Let's see what I come up with. Maybe it will be another quilt using my stash fabric again.
