Fall Weather Makes Me Want To Start New Projects





You can see all of Carrie Strine's gorgeous work in her flickr feed.
All photos above are directly from there.

I hope to be offering a few meatier posts in the next few days but until then, enjoy the most inspiring quilts I've seen in awhile.
xoxo,
Rachel

p.s. First attempt at a leather shoe design failed. However, I've learned a few things that make attempt #2 look promising!

    cool weather totally equals quilting (and knitting!) inspiration. Fall seems like a new start to me too...I love little inspiration posts...

    These are sooo inspiring. I love the colours she uses. I bought all the quilt making equipment, but have become totally engrossed in my knitting. Need to learn to multi-task those crafts!!x

    me too, about the fall thing. That first patchwork piece is amazingly intricate. I bet it took her forever to make!
