Scary Jack by Shepherds Bush

Here is the "Scary Jack" I finished stitching.  Woooo they are spooky!! I used 32 count blue fabric to make sure the pumpkins stick out.

Seasonal Stitching


Ah! the nice crisp air has started to come in and the leaves are slowly changing into their fall colors.  Fall and Winter are my absolute favorite seasons.  The xstitch bug has come back and I am ready to start.  Above I am showing you a design I made awhile back.

I am sure that most of you must have the book "Sweet and Simple Country Cross stitch", the design is from there.  This lovely design describes "fall" just the way I see it.

I will be asking my mom, who is amazing at sewing, to help me make something nice out of this, maybe a placemat (surrounded by nice fabric), a pot holder... not quite sue, but if you have any ideas, I am all ears!


Design and many other lovely ones are found in:

Hello Spring by Lizzie Kate


I received this in a Pillow Exchange that I participated in.  Even though there was a bit of trouble getting to me, I was glad it arrived,  It is stitched and finished with lots of care, the lovely bow is a nice finish.

As you can tell I haven't been posting over the summer.  For me summer is so short and so I take the time to enjoy the beautiful weather, plant my garden & flowers and spend quality time with my children and husband.

When the first leaf falls from the tree and the wind becomes crisper and colder..... that is when my stitching bug comes back.  So until then, I hope you take the time to enjoy your summer! 

Have a great one, be safe!!

Winter Forest Framed


I just wanted to show a post of my Snowflake Tree that came back from the framers.  I decided to put it in a frame rather than to make it into a cushion.  I tried to choose a frame that looked a little more like wood bark to match it.

What do you think?
Have a great day!!
