It's finally here. The Fall Into Fall Quilt Bloggers Giveaway has officially begun. From October 1st to October 15th, bloggers who also quilt have joined in a super fun blog hop. Debi who blogs at Quilting with Debi has organized a fabulous Fall event. Discover MANY wonderful blogs, make new blogging friends and perhaps win a prize or two from the giveaways. Each participating blogger is hosting a giveaway on their site. Visit the blog hop site to find a list of the quilting bloggers on the right side and the business bloggers on the left. Join in the blog-hopping fun! I first participated in the Fall Into Fall Blog Hop two years ago as a blog visitor. I had such a good time that I've been hoping since then that Debi would host another blog hop, but this time I wanted to participate with a giveaway. 
I love Fall! Here in Georgia we do experience a colorful season change. I love the falling leaves....
visiting pumpkin patches and eating pumpkin treats
One of my most favorite things is to visit the apple orchards and warehouses in the North Georgia Mountains. We didn't have experience apple season growing up in Louisiana. (Crawfish season is something we did embrace)
Reading pumpkin and apple stories to primary students for years and watching "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown." Yahoo for Fall!
I know you're saying enough of the Fall Tribute. Where's the giveaway? I searched my sewing room. I wanted my giveaway to reflect Fall, but also help reduce my stash. I remembered that I still had lots of fabric from making my own Good to Go bag. Lots of luscious Chelsea Lane fabric in fall tones from Pat Sloan. That was it. The past few days I've been in my sewing room putting the new bag together.
This Summer I had the opportunity to use my friend Jane's Studio Cutter from Accuquilt. This made my project easier as most of the fabric was already cut into strips. The Good to Go bag from Silver Thimble Quilt Company is made from string-pieced blocks.
My giveaway is this Good To Go tote bag Plus
an eyeglass/sunglass case to match the bag.
To enter the giveaway, please leave a comment telling me your favorite thing about Fall. For an extra chance to win, please leave an additional comment saying that you have signed up to become a Follower of my blog or tell me that you already follow my blog. International visitors are welcome to enter the giveaway. Good luck, friends! The winner will be announced on October 15th.

Those bags are beautiful. We don't have much of a changing season here, but right now you can feel a difference. It's very subtle, less humidity, a coolness to the air, that's my favorite, when the heat breaks and you want to be outside.
Morning, my favorite thing about fall is that the heat goes away at night and we can sleep well. Lizzie

What gorgeous fabrics, it's a bag that would get loads of use! I love autumn; one of my all-time favorite smells, when the black walnuts ripen and fall from my own (I grew it from a tin seedling) tree coms just before fall sets in. Some folks love the smell, others hate it; I'm one of the first kind.
What a beautiful bag! My favorite thing about fall is it means a promise of cooler weather (at least by Thanksgiving) and seeing the leaves turn colors. We don't get a lot of color but I do appreciate each tree that I see change. My hope is to one year make it back east to see the trees in all their color glory.
I have been following, reading, and enjoying your blog for quite awhile now!
How fun and colorful that fall prize is!!! I am an elementary school 'librarian' too! Sooo... I can definitely picture loads of books in that bag! :) Thanks!
I love fall leaves or pumpkin pie. I think it is a toss up. The bag is gorgeous. Thanks for the opportunity.

I love almost everything about fall! Fall is my favourite season!
Favourite things that come to mind: plum cake, TEA - big tea lover, crisp and chilly yet sunshiny days or mornings, colored leaves, even rainy days - Well, when it rains 3 weeks in a row I kinda get less enthusiastic, though. ;-) - my birthday is in fall and my son is born in fall, oh, I also got married in fall ...

Have a lovely weekend!

Other than the lucious fall colors, my favorite thing about fall would be the fact that the suffocating heat of summer is on it's way elsewhere. I see you have a doxie. I have a mini doxie than rules my house now that she's my only family here. That bag you made is absolutely stunning! Love it!
I'm a follower!

Thanks for the chance to win such a great prize. I love the smell of Fall. I hope that isn't too weird, but each season comes with it own unique aroma.
Oh Becky Sweetie...
I am so enjoying this Blog HOP. I have met so many wonderful people, visited so many gorgeous blog homes, and saw so many creative gifts of love.
This tote is exquisite. Oh how I would love this gift. Please enter my name into the giveaway. It is a bag of many colors. So beautiful just like the coat of many colors in the bible. You are so creative and gifted with sewing sweet friend.
What I love about Fall. That is easy for me. I live here in the desert of Phoenix. I love Fall when it gets here, because we see double digit temps again. As of today we are still seeing triple digit numbers and the grandkids are still swimming. We may not see Fall only Winter this year. For me though, it is the thought of cooler temps.
I am Country Wings in Phoenix. I love your blog home. It is so heart warming and home felt here. I love it. Thank you for the wonderful opportunity to win such a beautiful gift of love. Your talent amazes me sweet friend.
I am your newest follower. I would be so honored if you signed up to follow my blog as well.

I like the cooler weather here in Ohio and the produce that is ripe in the fall.
