Well, not really because it is super sunny and hot but I did survive the first day of school! It went swimmingly! I do have a finish and that is my "Feels Like Fall Quilt!" I made this out of a sample pack of scraps of something in all those rich reds and a bit of French General tone on tone. I used a solid cotton in rich burgundy for the binding and a gold cross weave with a bit of Etchings in cream. The quilt is a nice lap quilt size at 60" by 60". I quilted it in close straight lines with Aurifil 50 wt in cream. I love the texture this close, straight line quilting gives to a quilt.
I cut the fabric samples in strips and made rail fence blocks which I then organized in an alternating pattern.
And just so you know, I am "Miss September" over at the Fraser Valley Modern Quilt Guild's website! Tee hee hee!
Linking up with Fabric Tuesday at Quilt Story! Have a lovely rest of your day!
Lovely and simple!
