Festive Sewing

Hello again dear readers.......here's mabel the big bunny and some cosy festive sewing pictures to share......
.........i used sweet belle and boo christmas fabrics to make a festive tumbler cushion.......
........this fabric is called christmas fairground and it is perfect for fussy cutting........
......this is the tumbler patchwork before quilting........
.........a festive little quilt stack this week .........with dried orange slices, candles and toadstools.....
.....and a cute little holly jug from gisela graham........
........the quilt on the top of the stack is my xmas charm quilt also in the picture below......the tumbler cushion pattern, big bunny pattern, big bunny spring cardigan knitting pattern and charm quilt pattern are all in my etsy shop link in sidebar....
....this week we visited our favourite local botanic garden and saw these colourful leaves strewn on the grass there.....
.....it made me think of the famous camus quote which i've always found very apt at this time of year........'autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower'....these pretty leaves really do look like flowers to me........
..........more autumnal shades in the trees reflected in the pond below........it was a perfect sunny bright autumn day.......
......leaving you with a final picture of the new festive cushion and mabel who has a new dress made with the christmas presents fabric also from the new belle and boo xmas collection.....
.......wishing you well this coming week dear readers......thank you for visiting me here and for your kind words.........if you're making festive treats and doing some crafting.....enjoy the creativity and have fun.....take care lovelies............peace and love...........back soon xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I love your fussy cut tumbler blocks. Gives me ideas. LOL
Your fall colors are beautiful. In my neck of woods, Texas, Our only colors are our maple trees but the wind has already blew them away. Well my Belinda's Dream Rose bushes are still blooming and they big and pretty.
