Now on to my block(s) and project.  Using 5 Fall fabrics

and a paw print blender (not pictured), I put together a tossed 9-patch.  I used the Eleanor Burns pattern and she does a great little video on how the pattern is put together (and how to do her swirling centers!).

I didn't get any photos of the blocks before they got put together, but here is one of the blocks zoomed in:

See the smaller blocks that were the 5" blocks cut into quarters?

 Then I added a small inner border of the paw print to frame the whole thing.  I used the left over 5" squares and cut them in half, mixed them up and sewed them back into the outer border.

Here is a close-up of the quarter block:

 I can't wait to get this on the long arm!

I call the quilt "Disappearing Harvest"

 A couple close-ups of my favorite parts of one of the fabrics I used:
