I Long for Fall

The fam took a drive. We took a drive to Cedar Breaks, Utah to look at leaves. Why? Because we live in a desert waste land and I long for color. Southern Nevada has one color...brown. Utah has many colors...see?



This is one of the many reasons why fall is my favorite time of year.


We stopped at the best antique/craft mall in Cedar City. I should have taken a picture of the outside of the building but I forgot. But this is what came home with me.

All except the fabric! Mr P&L was nice enough to stop at a few quilt shops along the way. He's so awesome!

Are you anxiously waiting to see who won my giveaway? Dancer was gracious enough to draw the name.

Congratulations, Nanette!! I will get the quilt in the mail to you.

Piece & love,
Dawn

Being from Southern CA I say it has two seasons...green and brown. Glad you were able to escape your brown and enjoy the lovely colors Fall has to offer. Congrats to Nanette!!!
