Happy Quiltober!- Pumpkin Spice Quilt Along

This month I am hosting a Pumpkin Spice Quilt Along.  My goal is every Wednesday I will share the next step in the process to free-motion quilt and then add fabric paint to create your own Pumpkin Spice wall hanging.  All will be offered to members of the Linda B Creative Facebook Group.
