RUSTLING LEAVES
by Cheryl Haynes

The leaves are turning shades of burnished gold and copper. Soon, there's a rich palette of earthy reds, oranges and greens. It seems like a miracle of nature. That's the inspiration for Cheryl Hayne's Rustling Leaves collection. This fabric group has TWO charming panels, and an entire host of autumn textures and shades. It's a wonderful way to bring the season indoors.
