Autumn in New Hampshire
I've been blog absent of late. Mostly because I haven't done a whole lot of sewing. I finished grandson #1's quilt and will start on one for grandson #2 today so back to the sewing room. Work just gets in the way. Anyhow, autumn here in NH has been really spectacular. The colors are the best ever. One morning I got up to get ready for work and noticed golden color coming through the living room drapes.
There's some wood amongst the colors on the side of the yard waiting for the chain saw.
A lot of the leaves had fallen at this point but they still are so pretty. Driving to work, which I do on back roads, has been a pleasant thing these days with beautiful colors to inspire.
I really like the orange and yellow berries against the slate colors here. Makes me want to make a quilt with these colors. The sky this time of year is often a slate color so it's really pretty with the colored leaves shining against it. Inspiration is everywhere.
Then there's Miss Penny who looks so good against my favorite Halloween quilt. Speaking of Halloween quilts, I scored some great Halloween fabrics in a local quilt shop which I will tell you about next time. I smell another Halloween quilt coming out of the sewing room in the future.
How sweet are your pics...I love them! I would like to visit N.H in this season...

ReplyDeleteOh, Chris!! I am soooo jealous!! Right now I am in St. George, UT helping my Dad through the rest of his life and we don't have these beautiful colors here like we do in Colorado!!! Enjoy your autumn days for me, will ya?? And a long pet for Miss Penny!!!
ReplyDeleteYour foliage is beautiful and your baby(miss penny) is beautiful too -so cute and snuggly. My cats love quilts too. Soft blankets just call to them. I love your berries and the slate pieces you have - really neat idea.
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful tree colors and a sweet kitty too. Great pics!
ReplyDeleteGee, I miss those beautiful fall colors. We had a very hot dry summer and many of the trees that should be showing red are already brown. Thanks for sending some of your color our way!
ReplyDeleteYou pictures are just grat - thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeletethsnks for stopping by my blog today. Fall is beautiful at your house!! I love that your cat has the same name as me... I have known several dogs named Penny, but never a cat! :o)
ReplyDeletegreat photos, my fav your cat on your quilt....now I am a new follower too...on your list there...wink
ReplyDeleteHi Chris! I love the rich colors of the berries. I could just curl up with Miss Penny! Love that pic!
ReplyDeleteYour pictures are beautiful. It must be very peaceful where you live. However, it looks like it is pretty close to winter and right now the thought of winter is not something I am ready for. If I could stay home and not have to go out it would be heaven where you live though. Love the cat and Miss Penny. I do miss having a cat, they are such wonderful creatures.
ReplyDeleteGreat pics! I love the arrangement of your galvanized containers. And the kitty curled up on the quilt looks so cozy.
ReplyDeletePenny looks so cute and cozy all cuddled up in your Halloween quilt. I really enjoyed the fall pictures. What a wonderful time of year.
ReplyDeleteThat is a very beautiful cat on your quilt. I am partial to the calico's.
