What is the theme you ask? Heck if I know. Besides giving you a free pattern and recipe.... I'm not really sure. But, it is that season, isn't it? How about a peek at Polly's holiday decorations
Things here are a little less decorated. Matter of fact - things here are a mess. This was my dining room table this morning.
You see, all my quilts are stored on a bed in the guest bedroom. The one I wanted, well it was way down the pile. All the quilts came off the bed and were thrown on the dining room table. Once the quilt was discovered, they all went back on the bed - princess and the pea style. Christmas decorating is on my list this week. Way down the list, kind of like the desired quilt.

And the recipe for the Autumn Salad... what would be a Moda Blog Hop without a give-away? Comment on this post and you could wind a Fat 1/8th Bundle of Prairie Paisley II
Or you could be really, really lucky and win one of Polly's hooked rugs. This little charmer.....

Thank your for the salad recipe, both my husband and I enjoy a salad every night so it is always fun to get a new recipe.
