Sew Golden a Chance: October 2018

Welcome to the Peek-A-Who blog hop, hosted by Marian at Seams To Be Sew!

And we have great giveaways! See the rafflecopter at the end of the post to see what you need to do in order to enter, as well as a list of the shops participating.

Well, my birthday is October 30, the day before Halloween. Actually, I was born at midnight and the midwife asked my mother whether she wanted it midnight or 12:01 am and my mother said midnight. So, I am as close to a Halloween baby as a person can be without actually being one! You would think this would make me love Halloween, but I think it has done the opposite. But I do love autumn with the gorgeous leaves against the clear blue sky (yes there are a few glorious days like this in the fall in Minnesota), so I guess I wanted to focus on that.

Sooo... I made a really cute table topper from a pattern I got a year or so on a blog hop. It was very cute and it featured wool pumpkins on a pieced 36 patch of various orange squares.

Such a fun 36 patch! Modern fabrics made it more fun...

It is such fun to work with the wool and add a few little bits of embroidery to make it extra special. There is one thing I am disappointed about it though, I didn't think about the directional fabrics and I messed up the outside part of the block. But I still like the table topper even though it is a bit wonky.

And if you look carefully at the quilt on the quilt rack, you can see a nose of my dog Chloe peeking out. Perfect timing for the Peek A Who Blog Hop, I guess on this blog Chloe is the Peeker.
