Then there’s pie, pancakes, pandowdy, crumble, crisp, dumplings, strudel, brown betty…Can you even chose a favorite?

At this time of year, an apple a day hardly seems sufficient!

I can’t wait to finish this little table runner…so it’s ready to host a bowl full of apples!

  • Beautiful work, as always. The apples look good enough to eat!

  • The quilting is so pretty! My votes are for Northern Spy and Autumn Crisp as favorite apples, and apple crisp as favorite dessert!

      I’ve never had a Northern Spy –though I included it in the list because I liked the name. Now I will have to try it–thanks!

      • I hope you can find it. I know it’s a northern apple–I’m in upstate New York and one farm grows them and I’ve gotten them in Canada. It’s also a late-season apple, ussualy picked in late October. But so good!

  • Great idea for a table runner. I love Honeycrisps, myself.

    Wow, simply beautiful. Thank you for your continued inspiration.
    I will be in Minneapolis the weekend of Oct 11th and 12th. I am hoping your are available to have lunch on Saturday. Let me know
    Warmest regards,
    Patti

  • These apples are amazing, I love them!
    I really like this month’s back-to-school blog header. I heard somewhere that some schools no longer teach cursive handwriting to students. That’s kind-of sad, a school time right of passage going by the way side. Oh well, progress happens.
    Have a great day.
    Always, Queenie

      I also heard they aren’t teaching handwriting! I’m not sure if that’s progress. What will they do when they have to write a Thank you note? I maybe old fashioned but there’s nothing worse than a text message thank you!

    I love!! Perfect idea for cornerstones or large log cabin centers! Thank you for more inspiration, Amie

  • Beautifully stitched apples. My favourite apple is Braeburn; they’re lovely and crisp. Autumn is the best don’t you think?

  • Ellen M

    So cute. Love it.

  • I think your apples are the best kind! Thank you for the wonderful inspiration.

  • Just beautiful!
