Let's Book It - August 2015

Our participation has been down during the Summer months, so I hope that now that kids are back in school, that we are feeling the crunch for Halloween and Christmas making will pick things back up.  



My August project came from this book and since I have a tote full of layer cakes that need using, I chose 'Family Tree' by Deb Strain.


This book has both the large size quilt and instructions for making a smaller version - I chose the smaller and actually went smaller.


A fun little wall hanging for the Fall months ahead - and we are slipping into the Fall season in our area.

   

This month's charm is the Scrappy SchoolHouse to go with the Vintage Sewing Machine pin

I do love your little project, perfect for fall. The trees are just beginning to show a tiny bit of color here, but the 40 degree nights and the sounds of the insects sure indicate autumn is upon us.

It looks great and as you can guess I'm not happy that summer is basically over for us. It is never long enough in my humble opinion.

Your flying geese look beautiful. I'm ready to begin something new, especially for the fall. I'm going to check my stash later to find the right fabric.

Debbie said...

Love your geese! This turned out very cute. I am running behind as usual but will have a link on Tuesday!

Lots of pretty fall colors in your Family Tree. I'm still trudging along with my Poinsettia blocks, my Lets Book It Project. The piles get bigger, but it's not much to blog about at this point. I'll try to link up next month.

Love your wall hanging and you made it out of layer cakes? That's cool.
