Needles-n-Pins Stitcheries: Autumn Quilts

Now that fall is officially here and the temps are beginning to drop it will be getting a little chilly at night time so what is a better way to keep away the cool temps? Why it is a quilt! :) Here are a few beautiful autumn themed quilts from the artist of Etsy. The colors of fall are so gorgeous (my favorite time of year!) and these artists have truly made the colors pop!


This quilt from Quilted Pleasures show some really pretty leaves and great contrasting black and orange colors. 





JennyMQuilts also has all the colors of fall in this lap quilt.






Now....what is one of the most recognized things of fall....yep....pumpkins and AQuiltingV has a whole patch of pumpkins on this beautiful quilt. 





So...do you want to get really energetic and really get involved in making a beautiful fall quilt? Well if so take a look at this quilt kit from Quilters Paradise. WOW....what a beautiful quilt....a bit over my head, but I bet some of you quilters could whip this up in no time. :)





Wish I had more time to do make lots of autumn quilts and I do love looking at all of them and all the great fall colors. So get those quilting needles out and get busy sewing. :)



Happy sewing!

Needles-n-Pins Stitcheries: The Beauty of Quilts



I have been sewing for years, but I am a quilter at heart. Quilting is by far the best sewing there is for me even if I don't get to do a lot of it these days. I love all the colors of the fabrics and the stories they tell. So being that said....I thought today I would show you some of the beautiful quilts I found......

Karen over at Koloa Quilts on Etsy makes these beautiful tropical quilts that makes me want to be on the beach and not buried in the snow. 

River Squares at Freemotion by the River


I follow the wonderful blog Freemotion By River and Connie makes some of the most beautiful quilts I have ever seen. She just has such a good eye for colors and designs.

    Quilts also can have such beautiful colors and can show the colors of certain seasons. Like this one from Quilted Pleasures on Etsy. Lorri is member of the QuiltsQuiltsQuilts  team with me and I just love all the colors of this quilt. 



       Then there are quilts that are just beautiful with two simple colors like this black and white quilt by Shirley Gale. 

My goal this year is to at least get a few quilts made.....time to make some quilts for the Grandkids. :) Thanks for joining me in looking at all these beautiful quilts. 

Enjoy your week! :)
