I am happy to live in Kansas with the four distinct seasons. Each season has something special about it… fresh tomatoes in summer, the sound and smell of dry leaves in fall, the first snow, daffodil buds in spring . Some of my friends decorate for every season–heck, every month. (I could wake up from a long coma in one friend’s home and know just by looking around what month it was! ) Others are very minimalist. I take the middle route. For example, I use red, white and blue pieces before Memorial Day until long after July 4. No matter your “Modus operandi”, we have something that will fit your decorating style.
By the end of August, most of us are ready for Fall, at least for cooler weather. The rich colors of autumn stir memories and raise expectations for the holidays approaching.
The colors of these table toppers or table runners suggest the deep blue of a autumn sky. The appliquéd leaves are rich batik golds and browns. The topper to the left is $25 and the one on the right is $30.
This unusual table topper used Deb Strain fabric for the 3-D prairie points and binding. It measures 20″ x 20″ and is for sale for $50.
Hour glass blocks surrounded by a purple border is perfect for tables in October and November without screaming fall! It is for sale for $50.
SOLD 
Remember these Fall items? They are found in previous posts and are still available.
Winter as a season is overshadowed by the biggest holiday of the year, Christmas. But there are those couple of months after the New Year that we spend much of our time indoors. No reason to get the blahs with these cuties available.
This happy snowman is very tactile with neutral fabrics folded into prairie points–the tree is also touchable. This would be a fun wall hanging for anyone but especially if you had toddlers to enjoy it. Measuring 28″ x 29″, it would fit all sizes of walls. It is $50.
Snow people and January and February go together. This guy is reminding us to enjoy the snow. The pillow is 14″ x 14″ and has an envelope opening. It is $30.
And remember this snowman? –see the post on Appliqué

Ida C., one of the original members of the First Quilters made this floral baby quilts or table topper or throw. Reproduction 30’s fabrics were used in the patchwork and in the applique. Prairie points surround this quilt. It is both hand and machine quilted. It is $200.
Have you been to the Wichita Botanical Gardens in April. The number of different tulips is amazing! This 13″ x 37″ table runner is the next best thing to a visit to the gardens! $45
What is you favorite thing about summer? Ice cream is “legal” to eat? Bouquets of zinnias? Smell of fresh cut alfalfa? Sounds of kids in the pool? This quilt is the essence of summer–the colors, the butterflies, the flowers.
The quilt is 80″ x 106″. A butterfly motif was used to machine quilt this beauty.
And backing reminds me of summer fireworks on the 4th or after a baseball game. The quilt is for sale for $450.
Right in the middle of summer–our National Holiday! This bargello flag can be hung on your door, the deck or above the mantle. The flag is appliquéd onto the star background and measures 24″ 29″. It is $40
The early morning sounds of birds is especially a plus in the summer. Although you may not see these birds on your walk, this wall hanging in your home is a happy reminder of summer. “Tweet Tweet Condo” is 36″ x 26″, machine appliquéd and custom quilted. $100
Fall, winter, spring or summer?? I really can’t say I have a favorite.
