Make that two :-)

On this sunny Sunday I am happy to share that I have completed not one but two of my projects , yeah !! Which one would you like to see first , maybe the oldest of the two , ok .

This Autumn Bounty , a free BOM  a year ago here, the pattern is still available if you are interested in trying it , I enjoyed this project as it was a great way to use some scraps. I am over the moon happy to have this finished , it took me a while but all good things come to those who wait lol!
Next is my Simple Country Sampler by the Rabbit Factory , I did change it up a bit by adding an extra row .

If you recall I photographed this on the railing when it was just a top so I thought it was fitting to do so again now that it is completed. I had this machine quilted by Lynda at Fiddle Stitches in Mabou and I am very pleased . Again a great fun quilt to make , just loved every part of it and I really did use scraps on this one too , if you knew my other work you would see lots of bits and pieces from lots of other projects , the only fabric I purchased for this project was the backing even my binding is pieced , how great is that . You know the funny thing is I could quite easily make this again without going to the fabric shop , do you think I have too much fabric or maybe too many scraps .

Here it is spread out on the grass so you get a better idea of how it looks , the last row is an extra and the rooster pattern was not in the quilt pattern either ,I love my rooster and my cat both additions.

All rolled up in the crook of our maple tree , I always wanted to do this ;-)

Now the surprise of the day is this quilt , are you ready ?

That's right it is off the frame and is now trimmed up and ready for binding , I actually forgot what this looked like it was on there so long , sad really as it is not a large quilt and should not have taken me that long but such is life right  .

Want to see my mushroom ? I found an appropriate dish on the weekend , not quite what I was hoping for but it did work and I was surprised how difficult it was to find a clear glass dish so I grabbed this one in hopes it would work and I think it does  .

Kind of cute don't you think , thanks to Fiona of Bubzrubz fame for sharing this cute idea , I love it ! And now for a more natural setting for a mushroom , here it sits in my garden , not quite sure if this is the final resting spot but it was the first place I placed it and there it sits for now.

Kind of hidden so I may have to choose a better spot later on . I will be looking for other glassware for more mushrooms to join this one , after all mushrooms usually are found in multiples .
 So that is it for today , I am off now to enjoy this glorious sunshine , don't want to waste a nice day . Hope you enjoy your day and thanks for stopping by .
