Flowers - September and October
This is my first year ever to grow dahlias, and I really love them. More colors next year for sure.

Summer in the Park
This quilt uses a jelly roll, I used "Ruby" by Moda plus Kona white. I think it's going to really be pretty! I won't start sewing together until I have all the squares made. You can find the directions for this and other quilts at the Missouri Quilt Company website. http://missouriquiltco.com
I just watched the video for "Serendipity" and now I want to make one of those!! check it out!

Big Twister quilt
My next twister quilt before cutting it up. I used a layer cake pack that I've forgotten the pattern of "Breath of Avignon"plus a few from my stash to add a row.
PS:
Oh my gosh, I thought something looked unbalanced about this quilt! and when I started to cut it up I discovered what that was - the border needs to be 6" total! So now I need to fix that by either taking off this narrow border and adding a 6" border, or maybe I can just add the measurement to make this one 6" - whatever is easier! How dumb not to read the directions first!!!

Here is the top with enlarged borders, ready to cut up with the twister tool!

on my design wall
I bought some felt a long time ago because I read it made a good design wall. These are my Civil War blocks (mixed up). Almost caught up...

The last mystery was a table runner and 4 placemats. Here is one placemat.
