    Default Leaves are falling in Texas

    It all started when the shelves of my bookcase in the sewing room fell and all my books were everywhere. Well I found some Holiday books and was looking through them and found a leaf pattern. (any pattern will do) and decided to make a table runner. Well needless to say that went into a oversize lap quilt. it was fun. I just appliqued (by machine) on a off white on white piece of material. Then I decided to put the leaves over the border.[ATTACH=CONFIG]363355[/ATTACH]

    This is all scraps also. Everyone here makes some wonderful quilts from scraps I decided to try this.
    Thanks for looking.

    Great quilt. Love the way you extended the applique into the borders.

    Fall leaves in such pretty colors just falling all over the place is such a cute idea. Great job.
