Kimberly Sac with The Fat Quarter Shop

Hey y’all! The summer sure flew by and it seems like I’m busier than I’ve ever been, but I’m still getting lots of sewing in.

By the time September and October roll around every year—and without much regard to the actual temperatures outside—I’ve become fixated on anything that hints at the harvest season: football and tailgating, vests and cardigans, apple cider and caramel, pumpkins and…everything. (Sources, clockwise from top left: 1, 2, 3, 4) And of course, there’s  ...
