Little Green Apples Hop~~

Have you been doing the hop?

Hoppin' around the blogs? :-)

I just love hops! They inspire me to try new things. And Carol @Just Let Me Quilt thought up this fun idea! Thank you Carol!!

This challenge was to make something green or with apples or both! I chose both! I found this very cute apple core pattern at Sassafras Lane Designs.

Shayla & Kristy have so many fun FREE patterns!

I had to make it because my hubby is a green apple lover~ the sour ones! :-)

So I made this little mini to hang in our office. I strayed from the pattern ever so slightly by adding the seeds, and making smaller borders. Now I think I may have to go back and make all the fruit blocks! (did you go look?!) My fabrics for the core are a little light on the left~ I never realized I didn't own creamier neutrals! I don't have a lot of greens either so I had to repeat a couple. It is all good! Like in nature, all apples aren't perfect! :-)

Be sure to visit my fellow bloggers today~

New Pattern Release

Joanne @canuckquilter has released a new pattern~

Leafy Pathways

I was lucky enough to pattern test this one for her and I immediately thought of all the piles of colorful leaves in the fall. I dug out scraps and cut and sewed. I just love how it turned out!

It is 61.5" x 78.5" and there is a tiny bit of paper piecing to get the sharp leaf points. Very easy to do. :-)

Joanne did hers in spring greens, so be sure to visit her blog to see it. And the other tester's top too.

Until next time~

Happy Stitchin'!!
