I found myself googling images and patterns for leaves

Jane! Love that top block. I don't remember seeing that pattern before-- probably why I like it. :-)

I found another nice leaf while going through my PDF files this morning. It makes up into an 8-1/2" unfinished square but you could add a border around it to extend to the 12-1/2" block. I tried to "copy" a picture but was unsuccessful :(

Type in the following in your internet search engine: Antoinette Falls
(It's crafted by Linda Ambrosini of Laguana Quilts)

The pdf file came up as "Falling Leaf Table Runner" - QuiltersClubofAmerica.com . . . .

Her are some free templates to enlarge if anyone needs them.

Nice applique leaves...I haven't really found many 12 1/2" sized blocks that I like with the exception of the traditional maple leaf block and I figure most everyone will be doing that one? I've been working on an 8" paper pieced leaf which will have borders added. Is anyone else finding it more difficult to find 12 1/2" unfinished sizes?

Many patterns that could be adapted here ...

Yes, I am "adapting" some of them... :)

I found that site last night late and was going to post the link this morning. lol

Hello ladies, yes, I am visiting here a bit. I will have to see what my time line is before I commit. I have lots of customer quilts to quilt plus my own for the season of fairs and quilt show. I have lots of fall fabrics to use up. In fact, I finally finished up my swap blocks from a couple of years ago that were fall log cabins.
Question would be, does embroidered blocks count if they are leaves or do we just stick with pieced and appliqued blocks?

Never mind my question, I looked above and see that I can do embroidered. Cool, will see what I can come up with.
