It is my day on the Leafs Me Happy Blog Hop!! Yay! My second one and I am really having a fun time with it :o)
Thanks to Mdm Samm at Sew We Quilt! and Cherry at Cherry Blossoms Quilting Studio for putting this Blog Hop together and hosting the whole she-bang! Thank you thank you!!! Here is the whole schedule and here is the schedule for today:
AnnieOak Designs (that's ME!!!!!)
Make sure you check out the other blogs and give lotsa bloggy love!!!
Now on to my block(s) and project. Using 5 Fall fabrics
and a paw print blender (not pictured), I put together a tossed 9-patch. I used the Eleanor Burns pattern and she does a great little video on how the pattern is put together (and how to do her swirling centers!).
I didn't get any photos of the blocks before they got put together, but here is one of the blocks zoomed in:

| See the smaller blocks that were the 5" blocks cut into quarters? |
Then I added a small inner border of the paw print to frame the whole thing. I used the left over 5" squares and cut them in half, mixed them up and sewed them back into the outer border.

Here is a close-up of the quarter block:
I can't wait to get this on the long arm!

| I call the quilt "Disappearing Harvest" |
