Happy almost fall, August was all about Back to School and transitioning from summer to fall for us. Not to mention I’m convinced the apples start to taste really great this time of year. It’s not wonder apples are so popular. I figure there’s never too many ways to make em’ too!

This granny square features and apple center with a solid color or mix it up for a fun center, and leaf and stem. Use your apple as is for a motif or turn it granny square like I did for any project.
