Default Leaves are falling in Texas

It all started when the shelves of my bookcase in the sewing room fell and all my books were everywhere. Well I found some Holiday books and was looking through them and found a leaf pattern. (any pattern will do) and decided to make a table runner. Well needless to say that went into a oversize lap quilt. it was fun. I just appliqued (by machine) on a off white on white piece of material. Then I decided to put the leaves over the border.[ATTACH=CONFIG]363355[/ATTACH]

This is all scraps also. Everyone here makes some wonderful quilts from scraps I decided to try this.
Thanks for looking.

Fall leaves in such pretty colors just falling all over the place is such a cute idea. Great job.
