Faces of Fall

I love scarecrows. I am also allergic to burlap. I become a giant red hive and have trouble breathing. Over the weekend, I managed to piece together " A Harvest Welcome."

I still need to embellish, quilt, and bind. But, I will take progress in any shape or form. :0)



I chose green because it's a neutral color to me. Mother Nature uses it often. Let us not forget American dollars are that color.



I found the pattern in this magazine.








My house guest went home over the weekend. It seems weird without Silly Gilly.










Nothing taste better than a cool, crisp Pepsi on a fall day. So much for dog toys.




Miss Elly is happy, her beauty will no longer be ignored. See it even happens with dogs !

Great wall hanging, and I'll have to rethink green as a neutral. You are so correct in saying that is how mother nature uses it.

Such a cute scarecrow, and I always wished that I could create quilts. Karen
