beautiful fall

We've had a wonderful week enjoying the perfect fall weather! The trees aren't particularly vibrant in this part of the country but I enjoy the few ones that do put on a good show.

With the trees starting to turn here I was inspired to get back to work on my Farmer's Wife Sampler quilt.
I've been looking forward to making the Maple Leaf block for a while but could never settle on the perfect fabric. This Anna Maria Horner Field Study print is PERFECT! It was born to be a maple leaf.

Have a great weekend everyone!

last weekend

Okay, I meant to post this on Monday but didn't get around to loading pictures until today. I had such a lovely weekend I just wanted to share.

I am so excited to be knitting the Berry and Bramble Cardigan. I'm rolling right along, although 10 inches of twisted stitch ribbing takes a while!

Pumpkin Cupcakes from Real Simple magazine (October). They were really good! like pumpkin pie in a cupcake.We picked out a pumpkin. Jack tried to pick this one up. It was too funny!And we got a roof built over our back patio! I absolutely love it!I hope everyone else had a beautiful weekend! I guess it's already time to look forward to the next one.
