Autumn Days

 Hello again everyone.....here i am on a very autumnal day in the uk.......all the trees are turning into their autumn colours and there is a golden misty feel to the air............

 ............i have made a new red rosy pumpkin this weekend to add to my fabric pumpkin collection made in previous years (the easy pattern is in my book modern vintage gifts)........

 ..........i've also been sorting out my red and white patchwork quilts and cushions ready for the new season............

 ...............and painting this cupboard which came from my husband's family home and has been at his aunt's flat for a few years......now it has arrived here and i painted it in farrow and ball wimborne white...........it is going to be so useful for storage and brings back happy memories for us...........

 ..............some of my red and white collection....hope to keep adding more over the coming season....

 .............and here are the garden party girls..........twin bunnies dressed in liberty betsy fabrics and wearing knitted cardies to keep them cosy.........they are my project in the september issue of.......

 .............the beautiful and inspiring australian homespun magazine...............

 ..............the magazine is available in shops throughout australia and digitally on zinio, google play and apple newsstand...........i love a nice new inspiring magazine to read with a hot cup of tea........x

 ...............i love reading books too especially at this cosy time of year........

 ..............some pictures of this weekend's walk.............the common a few minutes from our house is covered with soft purple heather at the moment............and there are bright fruits and berries on the trees and bushes...........

 .................the dahlias below came from the greengrocer's shop.......they were locally grown.....someday i will have lots of dahlias in my garden too...........these flowers make me think of fireworks................

 ...............looking forward to finishing off some works in progress this week......a crochet blanket, some work design projects and getting lots of quilt blocks made.......plenty to keep me busy on these autumn days.............
