It's September!  Fall!  For some... it's the happiest time of year because Fall marks the return of Pumpkin Spice Lattes.  And of course, a Fall color palette.

These are Tammy's blocks - all 27 of them.  As soon as we get a design wall hung in the office, we'll take a picture of them laid out.

This is Block 27 ~ Union Variation.  It's from Jo Morton.  Except Tammy made this one using fabrics from Jo Morton, Jan Patek, Kansas Troubles and Blackbird Designs.  Starting in the center - the green is from New Hope by Jo Morton (more on that soon), the gold is from Wild Orchid by Blackbird Designs, the green HTSs are from a Kansas Troubles collection and the background if from Jan Patek's Fern Hill.

As always, the background is from Snowberry by 3 Sisters.  The prints are from Lexington by Minick & Simpson, Rachel Remembered by Betsy Chutchian, and Alice's Scrapbag and Union Blues, both by Barbara Brackman.  

For my Fig Tree & Co. block, the fabrics are from the Farmhouse and Chestnut Street collections and the background from the in-shops-now Ann's Arbor by Polly & Laurie, Minick & Simpson.

One quick thing to mention, these half-triangle squares finish at 1".  Because there are more than a few of them and they're all the same two prints, this is a great time to use triangle paper.  Do you use it?  I do and two papers that work perfectly here are Primitive Gatherings' Triangle Paper and Spinning Stars Triangle Paper - both in the 1" finished size.

These are the kinds of product I always have on hand for blocks like this.  And when you see setting for one of Lisa's Blockheads quilts, you're going to need some of these.  A lot of them.  (It's good... it's really, really good.)

Question of the Week ~ Is there a product-tool-ruler you wish you’d invented?

All of them!  Seriously.  I can't think of one that stands out as being "the One".  Starting with the sewing machine going right through the rotary cutter to some of my favorite rulers, I wish I'd been that clever.  Since I'm not, I'm happy that someone else was.  LED lights - the Daylight Slimline!  Couldn't sew without it.  But wait... that still takes me back to the sewing machine.  And the seam ripper.  Thread!  Thank you DMC, Lecien, Presencia, Coats & Clark and Aurifil thread for making beautiful thread in every possible weight, in every color of the rainbow.  And the needle people!

The Post-It Note.  And Ziploc bags.  Now there are two products quilters can't live without that I wish I'd invented.
