Our
leaves are finally getting some color. I love fall, the crisp air,
and the beauty across the rolling hills of Tennessee.
This
little quilt features another vintage block pattern called Silver Maple. It
was also published as Maple Leaf or Broad Arrow. Granny Rose made
several of these quilts. I chose fall prints of rust, taupe, green,
and gold for the nine inch blocks.
Falling
Leaves is 45” square after adding an outside border of half
rectangles. I quilted in dark taupe thread with free motion loops.
It's hanging on the wall in our dining room for the season.
