KT Winner
Congrats to Sorcha Girl from Iowa. You're the winner of our KT Diamond Templates.
Jamie received confirmation that Oak Haven is arriving this week. Woohoo! We'll have everything on the website after Robert and I return.
Our slightly sunburned smiling faces are on a plane today coming back from Huntington Beach. We enjoyed our time with the ladies at Orange Grove Quilt Guild -and a couple of lazy days at the beach. Now we're off to Jefferson City, Missouri on Tuesday to share with the Missouri River Quilt Guild. More to come next week.
Acorn Medley
If you've followed my blog for a while, you may have noticed I'm slightly addicted to acorns - sewing notions, thimble holders, charms, book ends and finials - made of wood, fabric, wool, vegetable ivory, glass..... it really doesn't matter as long as it's an acorn. Why? Your guess is as good as mine. I loved collecting them as a kid, making jewelry and fall "decor". Mom was gracious enough to display my prized creations - tiny wreaths and candle wraps - but explained they had to be thrown out after a couple weeks so they wouldn't draw bugs. Worked for me. I could make all new decor next year! Here's a sampling of my collection.
So, if you ever run across an acorn thimble holder, think of me!
When I think fall, I think leaves and acorns. Here's my version of a bushel of fall packed into a small quilt. One charm pack plus 3 fabrics is all you need to make this delightful reminder of the bounty of the season. The Acorn Medley charm pattern is available now. We'll have precut applique packs soon!
Comment this week to win our Acorn Medley charm pattern and charm pack. You'll have a good start on your fall decorating.

Very pretty fall quilt. I love pumpkins and stars.
ReplyDeleteIt is absolutely gorgeous! Fun seeing all the acorns too!
ReplyDeleteI love your acorns! My MIL gave me a beautiful acorn birdhouse over 30 yrs ago. It resides in my house as its too awesome to hang outside! Love the leaves and appliqués on this little quilt.
ReplyDeleteLast fall the hubby and I were in a fishing cabin at Lake of the Ozarks. The back deck was under very tall old oak trees that were constantly dropping acorns on us! Raining acorns, really! That cute pattern would remind me of that trip!" Terri
ReplyDeleteI love this new pattern and can't wait 'til Oak Haven is available. Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful fabric, and beautiful fall quilt! I loved seeing the acorns. I only have one - a large ceramic acorn; the handle is a little squirrel. We have squirrels in our yard, and I love to see them run across the deck. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI will be on the look out for those acorn thimble holders. I love acorns too and I love this pattern!
ReplyDeleteWhat is fall without acorns! Love the fabric and the pattern.
ReplyDeletePretty for fall! Happy Monday ♥

ReplyDeleteWhat a neat post! Love your Collections+the new Mini Quilt>so pretty! mssstitcher1214@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteFall is my favorite season, not only for decorating but also the crisp weather, football games to watch and do handwork. Too bad it wouldn't last longer. Love your Acorn Medley!
ReplyDeleteI love Fall too but dried flowers (in particular sunflowers) are what I think of first. Also the smell of Fall is wonderful! Have a fun in Jeff City!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely collection of acorns! Love the new quilt. Glad you had a good time in sunny California. K- lkw2x6-apq@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteLove watching the squirrels collecting acorns, walnuts, etc. along with decorating for Fall !
ReplyDeleteI have a basket full of acorns my grandson and I have picked up from different places we've been or lived. I have several acorn containers too. I'd love to win the pattern and charm pack! Enjoy Jeff City! Bev Eckert
ReplyDeleteSuch pretty acorns. I have never seen one in real life.
ReplyDeleteI just love this pattern. Fall colors are my favorite, and the blue star makes it a little different.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to make the Acorn Medley! Thanks for the chance!

ReplyDeleteMy best friend is obsessed with acorns also. Her Christmas present this year will definitely include Oak Haven.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for fall. My favorite season. I like the fall colors and the Acorn Medley! Helps me think cool on this day that was 93 degrees!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to start the fall season than with acorns! I will now have to look for them and think of you.
ReplyDeleteI love all the acorn items! The Acorn Medley quilt is lovely. Thank you for a chance to win the charm pack. Hugs,
ReplyDeleteAcorns and colored leaves equal fall to me also. I always try to throw in a few pumpkins. Look forward to seeing the acorn charm pack after seeing the quilt.
ReplyDeleteThanks,
Fall is my favorite time of year! I love decorating with leaves, pine cones, acorns, pumpkins, etc. This Acorn Medley quilt would fit right in!
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to think fall while we're having such heat humidity here in Arkansas! However, that Acorn Medley is beautiful and makes me want fall here even more!
ReplyDeleteThe acorns are beginning to fall from our trees. The grandkids love to gather them and line them up on the picnic table for the sqirrels. Just love fall.
ReplyDeleteIsn't fall just a beautiful time of year....the colors, the smells, crisp morning air - all add to a wonderful day! Acorn Medley fits right in!! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteAcorn Medley is a darling pattern and it looks like it would be so much fun to sew. For some reason I love acorns, too. They just make you think of autumn and fall colors and scuffling through the leaves on the ground.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful example of why I say I love Fall the best. Move this way up on my to do list.
ReplyDeleteNow I know what to do with my scraps...just so thankful I have two pin oaks!!!
ReplyDeleteApplique, flying geese, pumpkins and fall color! what more could one want? Jeannine aka jknits
ReplyDeleteI sure hope you have some fruitful oak trees where you live, Lynn, so that you can gather acorns to your heart's content. In my oak-tree-filled yard here in the Ozarks, a large chinquapin is our most prolific acorn producer. The small tan acorns with darker brown caps are so pretty in bowls and baskets. Plus, I just like to say, "chinquapin!" 😃 Love your fall fabric and this darling fall pattern.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilt. Love this fabric. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteWe have an oak tree just outside the garage door and an acorn dropped into my bathrobe pocket while I was letting the dogs out one morning. What a surprise! I put it with my Tom Clark Gnomes, they always have an acorn on them. Fall is my favorite time of year.
ReplyDeleteFall is my favorite time! We feed the squirrels and birds all year, fall is the most active time. My stash is loaded with fall theme fabs. Acorns abound in them!!
ReplyDeleteLove Acorns. Your quilt is great. Hope to win. Nancy P.
ReplyDeleteLots of oak trees in my yard = lots of acorns = happy squirrels. Acorn Medley patter = happy quilter.

ReplyDeleteI love fall it is my favorite season. I enjoyed your acorn display. Thank you for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI understand your love of acorns. Walking in the woods and finding acorns, especially with their caps still intact, is so enjoyable for me.

ReplyDeleteFall is my favorite season. I love the colors and how everything starts to wind down from the hectic days of summer. Love the Acorn Medley wall hanging, it's perfect for welcoming the season. You do know that now I will be on the hunt for an Acorn thimble holder from now on. Rina
