It's slightly foggy and lightly misty outside, a welcome sign that (5 weeks after the Autumnal Equinox) Fall weather might be just around the corner.
This was finished yesterday. It feels like the fastest flimsy-to-finish I've ever accomplished (not counting baby quilts).

I thought I had already posted about the latest strippie, but the only thing I'd shown so far had been a little bit of the quilting-in-progress.
Here's the whole thing:

... and when I looked up, it was October already!
That's how I felt when I realized I hadn't posted anything since the end of August. What the heck, September?? Where did you go while I wasn't looking???
I wasn't idle, that's for sure. This orphaned piece from a year ago . . .
A couple of months ago several hunks and kits and collections of fabrics magically appeared on the "Show and Tell" table at the Community First! Quilters' monthly meeting (I suspect someone was clearing out her sewing room in preparation for moving). Once the dust had settled and everyone took what they wanted, I brought the remaining hunks and kits and collections home with me to either add to our stash, or list on ebay.
There were 4 panels that called out to me, however, with a promise of an easy twin-sized quilt to create. And it was! I had plenty of yellows, oranges, greens, and browns to either pull from my 2.5" square collection, or cut from my own drawers of hunks and chunks. (Note to self: 4:30 pm in late August is a terrible time for picture-taking. The sun casts a shadow on the fence, and the temperature is still in the 100s.)
