Fall online Needlework Show


     Hope that everyone is having a great fall. It is almost time for the fall online Needlework Show! (http://www.needleworkshow.com/)  It runs October 20-25.  Everyone can go and see all the new designs for the designers participating.  If you find something that you like, then you can visit (roadtrip!!) or call your favorite shop so they can order it for you!  It is a way that you can see new designs and designers that you may not know about. We are also having a doorprize drawing! Have fun!

Pumpkins
      
    This fall we decided to design a piece that shows our fasination with all the beautiful colors and shapes of pumpkins!  Pumpkins are a big thing here in North Carolina with all the kindergarten children making trips to the pumpkin farm to select their very own pumpkin and to ride on the hay wagon.  Such a fun trip for everyone!

Christmas Biscornu

This small elegant biscornu is a fast stitch and the perfect little gift for that special stitcher in your life.  Stitched in red on the front and green on the back,  it looks just like the Christmas season but the colors can be changed to fit your own taste.  All the stitching instructions are included with the chart.  We were able to stitch it up and finish it in a weekend-so plenly of time to make several before the holidays!

Take care and we will be in touch--we have pictures from the Cleveland County Fair!
