The last few nights have been chilly. The days are getting shorter. And, the leaves have begun to change. Another autumn is right around the corner. I look forward to this time of year with much anticipation. It is the season for warm, hearty soups with fresh baked bread, apple desserts from our own orchard, mulled cider, bonfires, long walks thru crunchy leaves, and wrapping myself in warm, cozy sweaters. Before long, a roaring fire in our wood stove and fireplace will warm the house and the smell of freshly baked apple and pumpkin pies will hang in the air. The anticipation of autumn inspired me to begin decorating the house inside and out for the coming season. Pumpkins and mums grace the decks and doorways around the house, and I have begun to set out the fall garlands and gourds. 
After decorating the mantle of our fireplace and our dining room table, I decided to make a couple of dish towels for Halloween.
I printed vintage Halloween greeting cards on fabric and appliqued them on striped dishtowels. A fancy machine stitch holds the applique in place. 
Fast and easy....this would make a great treat for your favorite Halloween friend.

Bev,
Your house is beautiful! Thanks for sharing all these great photos.
I love fall. It is my favorite reasons. The warm days, cool nights, bonfires, cozying up with warm sweaters, apple picking, pumpkin carving and the decorations. Your towels are such fun.
