Falling temps....raging winds....

and with a whoop,a hollar, and a roar....September makes her presence known here in my part of WI....September 21st, and the autumnal equinox maybe be 9 days away....
but autumn has arrived!! Overnight temps are dipping into the high 30's and low 40's. Daytime..maybe 66 or 67 degrees....brrrrrr! Apple time....
and with the familiar sound of the furnace kicking on once more, out comes this older Halloween quilt...*VBS* It's a good one for the back of the couch...it's colors, bright and cheerful. Ebby loves when a new quilt comes out..she has to kitty test it immediately. She's become quite the QUILT CAT in her year here. This quilt is just odds and ends, leftovers, patched together into funky boxes and 16 patches. I utility quilted it, and it washes up quick and easy...no worries about using it.
The past few days have been laced with 'duty' and management stuff, something you homeowners don't have in the same degree. Management is a PRESENCE here in my little complex. They protect and care for their investment...sometimes a bit too much! Sooo after a long day of dealing with 'stuff'(including the autumn bug man visit..yuk) I sat down at the machine last night and played with orphan blocks. The small pink and white one will get a narrow border and then a border of 1.5" squares I think...definitely doll quilt size. The larger one, second picture, I'm not sure about. I used ALL the blocks of that type....not sure if I will set it on point(ala table square)or add borders or put it aside to be included in the larger orphan quilt I am working on right now....time will tell. The next few days..well, a week almost, is all mine! I have pressing duties to tend to in the garage(re:organizing and purging) but I'm going to take some time to sew....how about you????
