By this time of year, nature herself has set the stage for spooky Halloween parties, trick-or-treaters, goblins and spooks. Leaves have been pulled from tree branches, making a crunchy, creepy carpet beneath ours and little goonies’ feet.

It’s fun to see these bare branched trees in quilts and pillows, as we have lately.

How about you?
Bare trees where you are?
Have you made a bare branched tree quilt to celebrate and make note of this time of year? We’re appreciating the stark trees and the magic at our feet:

























What a beautiful collection of fall images. Our leaves have not all fallen as of yet, but the weather has taken a distinct turn so it is only a matter of time.
Thanks, Karen.
