My kids are back in school after what felt like the shortest summer ever...and even though I'd take another month of summer, I'm also ready to get back to routines and back to my sewing machine! Fall is my favorite time to sew, so I rounded up some of my favorite past fall quilts all in one post.
Fall Leaves still takes the top spot as my favorite fall quilt. I've seen some fabulous versions of this quilt over the past year on Instagram! Every time I see a new one I like it more than mine and I want to remake it.
Costco already has the Halloween candy out, which must mean it's time to start a Halloween quilt! I made this Bats quilt a handful of years ago for my son:
and then I made another one but in cute colors! Sewing with only black and white is veeeeery boring.
I used up all my random pieces and fall-ish scraps on this hourglass quilt a couple of years ago. I just got this one out today!
I have a free pattern for it you can find here.
And of course no fall quilt roundup is complete without Pumpkins...
and pumpkins with polka dots...
and mini pumpkins...
and Pumpkin Patches in fall colors...
...and Halloween Pumpkin Patches!
On a side note, you could add leaves to these pumpkins and this would be a darling back to school quilt with apples!
I hope you find some inspiration and a fun fall project to work on.
I'm off to bind a quilt and dust off my sewing machine. Can you believe I haven't bound or finished a quilt in over 5 months?!!!!! Me neither.

Only if you changed the orange for red or green and then added leaves on the stem could pumpkins become apples :-)

I made an all white quilt (as requested) for my MIL and almost cried of boredom. Ignoring such future requests. I am hoping to make a pumpkin-bat combo this fall!

I've been saving orange fabrics - I hope to have enough variety to make some this Autumn :)

I have a few of your patterns but didn't realize you're in my home town. How's your house coming along? It's on the same driveway as my cousin.

So many beautiful quilts, it's hard to pick a favorite! The bat is on my list to make and the leaves remind me of a beautiful quilt that my mom made for me.
