My love of fall decorations

I love, love, love fall decorations.

I have a set of fall placemats spread out around my own house with my collection of ceramic pumpkins and a few fall floral arrangements.

And in the shop I have some fall decor as well.


There are two table toppers that would look best on a small table or as part of a centerpiece on a large table.



There's one super-cute Halloween table runner that is soon to be joined by a second as soon as I finish sewing the binding down by hand.


And the sunflower table runners really, could be out any time of year, but could also work for fall.

How about you? Do you get into decorating your house in fall colors this time of year?

Getting ready for my first fair

I haven't blogged much recently because I've been very busy getting ready for a craft fair this weekend.

I've never been in a fair before, so I was afraid I wouldn't have enough items to fill my six-foot folding table, but as I arranged them all last night, I realized my problem is that I'm running out of space, which is a good problem to have I think.


I've made table runners, table toppers, pot holders, Christmas stockings, a messenger bag, baby/lap quilts and matching doll quilts. I'm still finishing up a few items, but I'll have close to 50 available on the day of the fair and all but three are priced between $5 and $30.


On top of those low prices, I'm offering 20 percent off to anyone who mentions this blog when purchasing.

The fair is from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 25, at Ben Franklin Crafts, 2500 52nd Ave., Moline. It's behind SouthPark Mall. I hope to see you all there.
