The Third block in our year long journey of Farmer's Market quilt making is the sweet, crisp, wonderful Apple!
I put Farmer's market items that mean something to me, and I have had a long love affair with the apple. They have top billing on the upper right of our quilt!
When I was a kid, we lived pretty near some apple orchards. Fall meant a trip to the orchard market. They had some HUGE markets set up at the front of the orchard with bins and bins of apples.
I can remember being so excited to go with my family. We got to walk around, sample the apples AND have fresh apple cider.. wow.. that was the BEST!
Plus the colors.. Red anyone? This may have started my red obsession!

I promised some giveaways during the year, and this is my first, a really really nice one, don't you think?
A FatQuarter Bundle of my fabric AND a favorite color of My Aurifil Thread.. yeah!
