Midweek Update: a Finish!

I had a "Drop Everything and Make It" project this month, and it is finished!  I always enjoy Carole's (From My Carolina Home) fall projects and this year's was no exception.  Her plan was for a mini quilt/wall-hanging/table-topper that was fall and Thanksgiving themed and that hooked me right in.  While hunting around for fabric in my stash for this project, I came across a half yard of a sunflower print that I purchased on vacation in August and decided to use it as the focus fabric.

I paired the sunflowers with a cream/stars neutral, 
and a dark green with stars for the borders.

I embroidered the center design (find it HERE) and surrounded it with lots of flying geese.  More sunflowers for the cornerstones and the binding finished this off perfectly.  


If you're a regular reader of my blog, you might know I've been a little bit obsessed with sunflowers recently.  They are one of my favorite flowers, and I even grew some in my garden this year!


But now that the growing season is over with, I can still enjoy sunflowers made with fabric and thread indoors!
