So many blogs this morning referred to autumn leaves that I thought I'd better contribute. While most of the trees are still covered with green leaves here in my part of Texas, some have started to fall. I have no idea where these leaves came from but look at the color! I love the contrast between the soft green moss and the bright red leaves.

I also thought I'd share my little bird painting from my class with Judy Coates Perez at the Houston Quilt festival. I learned a lot from her and will definately do more paintings of this sort. It was also fun to have Judy's daughter Nina in the class as Judy's helper. <
