Hello, friends! Today I’m sharing the Saturday Seven 407: Lifestyle & More for Quilters post with a roundup of things I’ve found around the internet this week. I hope you’ll enjoy the inspiration.
Here at home our temperatures are finally dropping below 100 during the day and heading towards the 60’s at night. I think we’ve finally turned the corner into fall! Also, we’ve got just two weeks left before we can share our next fabric collection and new patterns, and we can hardly wait for the time to share!

Saturday Seven 407: Lifestyle & More for Quilters
1. Self-Care
Here are some thoughts on Finding Joy in Sewing! And I loved these 6 ideas for long-term help staying decluttered!
2. Recipes to Try
This Harvest Apple Salad is exactly what I’ve been craving lately. I do love pumpkin, so I’m going to try these Pumpkin Protein Balls, too. And for a dessert recipe–this Amazing Chocolate Olive Oil Cake looks so good!
3. Quilt & Sew
Did you know that all Jelly Roll Patterns are on sale this month at Fat Quarter Shop? Shop on-sale Jelly Roll patterns here! Fat Quarter Shop also just shared a fun roundup with 5 Cute Weekend Sewing Projects for the Kitchen.
4. Book & Podcast Recommendations
This episode of Deep Questions was quite interesting–although it was dismaying to learn about some downward projections in intelligence testing, Cal offered a variety of ideas to offset some of the causes.

I know it’s early, but seriously, there are a lot of things you can do now to get ready for your Christmas quilting, sewing and gifting.
