mellicious Autumn Trip Around the World - I had been intending for a long time to make a fall-leaf quilt, and had considered and abandoned a number of other patterns before I found this small (3") paper-pieced leaf pattern on the website small-expressions.com. I used a great variety of fabrics from my own stash and other people's too! I improvised the trip around the world arrangement of the colors as I went along. I originally intended to make a small quilt, but the blocks were fun to make, and I kept going until I had 196 blocks.
