I’m sending you a very earthy, crunchy hello from gorgeous Portland. I keep telling Mr. Right I may come home with a nose ring and a tattoo. Which, for the record, is perfectly lovely on some people, but if you know me, I’m a bit conservative scared buttoned up not cool enough to pull that off.
But anyway, today I’m linking up with The Bargain Blonde for Friday Favorites. In particular, here are some of my current favorites for fall. Click on the pictures to be redirected to the original source.
Decorating with pumpkins – this makes me want to host a dinner party.
A free fall printable from one of my favorite bloggers (she draws these herself – crazy, huh?).
I’m thinking of making something like this as Christmas stocking stuffers. I could add a loop of thread and convert them into ornaments (with different fabric of course).
This gal’s etsy shop is like a burlap heaven. I love everything in there.
I love pairing my chambray shirt with skinny jeans and boots. I think I may have to add a scarf as well. I also do the white tank beneath it to hide my hiney in those skinny jeans – glad to know it’s considered fashionable and not just functional.
I found the perfect place to display one of my Texas Lovely designs in my kitchen. Although now I have a hankering to paint that frame and distress it. Hmmm…
I adore the applique on this pillow. It would take me forever, but might be a good ongoing project. Speaking of projects, I’m currently recovering all of my living room pillows. I figured I’d done enough sewing for others, it was time to spoil myself for a bit (besides, they were a bit worn, which is ridiculous considering I sell pillows these days). Pictures to come soon. One is a temporary home for some yo-yo’s I’ve been making for the past year – a definite labor of love.
One of my very favorite things is my newest nephew Jack. You may have prayed for him when he decided to arrive eight weeks early. Crazy thing is, he isn’t even really “due” for another three weeks. Is there anything more wonderful than a preemie baby’s grin?
On the fourth day of being home sick last week I finally had the energy to finish piecing together this yellow and gray quilt. It’s made from the same fabric as the chevron quilt I made last month. I love the endless possibilities that come from piecing triangles.
I had planned to put it in my shop but an old sorority sister with an adorable newborn baby girl called dibs, so it will be headed to Austin just as soon as I can get this gal quilted.
And that’s it! I hope you have a wonderfully fabulous fall Friday.
Wow. I love your Friday faves title at the top, and we pinned a lot of the same stuff! I may need something from your Texas lovely shop for my new abode once I move in. Totes going to stalk it now. Baby jack is so sweet, he looks so content in that picture. Melt my heart.
I think great minds think alike! Ps– your blog is one of my favorites!
I wore that exact same outfit last weekend!! Great taste!:)
that quilt is gorgeous! I love decorating with pumpkins too, they are everywhere in my house right now 🙂
Love everything!! The quilt is darling and the pic of baby Jack is sooo precious. I am sure Mr. Right is anxiously awaiting your homecoming. Luv yall.
Seriously, so sad I missed dibs on that quilt. LOVE IT. You may never have a quilt make it to the shop again!
