happy weekend

Happy Friday!
 Just wanted to stop in to wish you all a lovely weekend and show you a couple of pretties!! The weather has been quite warm this week, and I am eager for the cooler fall weather. I finished another hexie flower and I really love this one! So sweet and summery! 
If you followed me last year, you might remember these vintage maple leaf blocks that I bought at an estate sale. I had made the quilt top, but never got around to finishing it until this week! Only a year later. ;) Well, I was going to hand quilt it, but decided to do a simple machine quilting of diagonal lines, which I finished yesterday, and I just need to finish the binding. I am looking forward to showing it to you next week!! I am ready for fall!! How about you? 

Thank you for all your sweet commend on my finished barn quilt and crocheted hanger!! Wishing you a happy and creative weekend!

  4. Love the colors of your hexie flower, I know I say that every time but I really mean it...you have such a good eye for color combinations!

    I love Fall and always look forward to it's arrival. It is my favorite season, maybe because it brings out the nesting instinct in my.

    Have a lovely weekend my friend. xo

    I'm ready for cooler weather but not fall. Make sense?
    Such is the reasoning of a northern girl!
