It sure does seem.......

....like fall is coming. Even in the south the air is not quite so hot and the days are getting shorter. We do not enjoy the burst of color that runs like a wave a little further north, but we will enjoy the cooler evenings. I've added a little bit of fall to my blog with a new background. I found this on "Simply Blog It" Backgrounds. The soft fall leaves and blue background were such a nice c0mbination that I thought I would try it. Of course I found this through one of my favorite blogs "Freebies for Crafters". If you've never visited there before, you are missing a lot of wonderful FREE craft ideas. These girls really have found some great sites.

Last week I was in the area of another quilt shop. As I had not been there in quite a while, I thought I would stop in and visit.
Just so you don't miss the turn off.


This is the husband's porch. It overlooks a small butterfly garden. Great place for the Misters to wait for their browsing Mrs.


Hopefully you have hung with me this far, because while I was browsing in this little shop I thought that it's time to have another little giveaway. It's always so much fun to win a giveaway, and also to have a giveaway!

So my Fall giveaway is this -


I'm giving away four Fat Quarters plus 1/2 yard black striped fabric, 1/2 yard of the red black and grey floral, two spools of Essential Threads (Black and Smoke Grey), a spool of Sulky Bobbin Thread, and a roll of Seamless Quilt Binding (2 1/2" x 12 yards).

So that's it! You know the routine. Leave a comment on this post, and be sure that I have a way of contacting you, either through your blog or email. Internationals are more then welcome! I will leave this giveaway open until Saturday 10/3. Winner will be announced on Monday.

Thanks to all of you who follow my little blog. I can't tell you how many times I sit here at the computer and read your sweet comments. I have so enjoyed reading your blogs and getting to know many of you. When I started this conversation I had no idea there were so many quilting blogs out there. It has been such a joy to find a whole new way to find quilters and talk with all of you. You are all so creative, talented and generous. I've enjoyed reading and learning from each of you. I will probably never meet you face to face, but I do love to drop in and have a little visit with you.

So, again thank you and let the commenting begin :-)
