Halloween is over and...........

November brings another fun holiday to the studio.
I've tidied up the studio and packed away all things orange till next year.
I'm on to the next holiday now and have started to haul out bins and bins of wintry delights and Christmas finery.
The studio is over flowing with bits and pieces....... shiny baubles......brush trees and glimmering tinsel. Stacks of woolly scarves and piles of mittens have taken over. I'm so loving the palette of wintry whites, golds and silvers with bits of blue.
The first of the Christmas magic has now left the studio.........I'll give you a peek at these pieces in the next day or two.

Hello November..........

"November comes And November goes,
With the last red berries And the first white snows.
With night coming early, And dawn coming late,
And ice in the bucket, And frost by the gate.
The fires burn, And the kettles sing,
And earth sinks to rest Until next spring."
- Clyde Watson

Antique Quilts...........

Antique quilts created in Halloween colorings are another favorite of mine.
I adore them and am always on the hunt for just one more.
I hang them on walls.......... drape them on harvest tables..........they're stacked on a trunk and layered on the bed in the guest room...........
Oh, I haven't told you about my guest room??? The BOO room?? I'll leave this for another day.
Today I hope you enjoy seeing a sampling of what I call my antique Halloween quilts. You may have already noticed a couple in displays from my previous Halloween posts.

And yes, I collect quilts in everyday colorings and my second favorite are the ones created in reds and greens. You'll be seeing these too, as THAT holiday will be nipping at our heels before we know it.
