......this is the start of an autumn heartstrings quilt ..........(pattern in my etsy shop link in sidebar)....
...........using lots of low volume fabrics for the backgrounds and lots of new and old fabrics for the hearts....
...........some of the hearts are fussy cut from lovely new belle and boo fabrics.........
..........a bunny .........and a squirrel.........
............below are some more of the beautiful new autumn fabrics from belle and boo......

............i love these late summer and early autumn hedgerows.........
...........and golden views across the fields........
