Sew Autumn Finish

I just put the finishing stitches in my Sew Autumn piece. I had fun stitching this... I love to stitch the alphabet. This floss was so pretty that it was fun to watch the motifs develop. Now, I have the rest of the weekend, so I am going to devote the stitching time to my Christmas Village. I won't say any names, but someone who lives in this house, that got it for me for Christmas a couple years ago, would really like to see me work on it!!!
Have a great weekend & thanks for visiting & for commenting!!!

Crow Pillow Finished!

My little pillow is finished! I am real happy with how it turned out!!! This will look cute setting with my other autumn decorations!
I used the fabric that it is laying on for the back of it!
Thanks for looking & I really appreciate those of you who take the time to leave a comment! It means so much to me!

A finish, a progress picture & update

I finished Crows today! What a FUN stitch!!!!!! I am going to make this into a small pillow with the cracked walnut shells as the filler. I bought this bag a long time ago & it is about time to use it!!
I worked on my B. Potter a little more in the month of Oct. I don't work on it a lot, but I love it every time that I do!
I gathered my supplies for the Christmas stocking SAL today. I need to start it real soon. I think it is going to be so pretty! I will keep you in suspense as to what color scheme I chose!
I hope everyone had a great weekend!!! We did!!! We went to Hobby Lobby & got a mat board cut for my Bethlehem piece.
We took a walk yesterday afternoon, so I am attaching a couple of those pictures too! Mr. Cardinal is in my bird bath.
Have a great week!!!!!

Three New Starts

Since finishing page one of my HAED design the other night, I have worked on my B. Potter piece (pictures later this week). I have also started three new projects. Have I lost my mind??? No, I just found 2 wonderful freebies online & a dear friend sent me a pattern after she finished with it.
First, I started a Christmas SAL piece. This SAL started a while ago, so I am behind, but I am determined to catch up with everyone else. You can see the SAL piece here:

Next, I found some adorable freebies here:

I decided to start with sew autumn, to be true to the season we are enjoying right now. I found a wonderful silk floss in my collection that is perfect! It is even called an autumn name.
Lastly, I have started Crows by Bent Creek. Sweet Julie sent me this chart when she finished it. I had offered to buy it from her & she was kind enough to just give it to me.
I am working on these three during the day time hours & then working on B. Potter in the evenings this week.
Thanks so much for having a look at my blog & for commenting! You are all great!

Feels like a Finish!

Well, this feel like a finish & technically, it is!!! You see, this is page one of 49 pages. I think I have a little more stitching to do before this is finished!! Wow, it is really going to be beautiful, but it is going to take a little time!
For those who haven't seen previous posts about this one, it is Little Drummer Boy by Heaven & Earth Designs. I still love this pattern, even knowing how much I have left to do!!!
Now, time for some B. Potter for a day or two & also a pattern I was gifted with today!!!

Merry Christmas!!! ok, maybe not but a SAL....

who is up for a SAL that will start in Nov. & be finished by the first week of Dec., if we keep up with it???
I discovered this SAL the other day & it is gorgeous!!!!!
Here is a link to the blog, so you can see for yourself!!!
