Frolic In The Foliage

Happy Wednesday! Today I bring to you a sneak peek of "Frolic In the Foliage"....my new autumn design that will be released in September at the TNNA St. Charles Needlework Market. I have been doing the model stitching on this project for the last week - and I must say, I really enjoyed it! It is my first model on the new 40-count overdyed linen from Weeks Dye Works (Beige) and it was very nice to stitch on...very soft and very easy to handle...and for those of you who I know will ask, it is stitched with Weeks Dye Works cotton floss. I will be taking this to my custom framer tomorrow, which is a treat, as she has been getting in all sorts of new frame molding...it makes it so much fun to pick out something both perfect and unique! So here is a preview photo for you, before framing...and (of course) each square is perfect for an ornament, scissor fob, or hook hanger (photo of smalls coming in the future)! Now I am off to start the model stitching for "Halloween With A 'Y'"....I'm keeping busy; there is so much model stitching I want to do...

  2. OMG! I really love this one! I love the new WDW 40ct fabrics too. I think I have a piece of beige. I'll have to set it aside!

  13. OH*MY*GOSH!!! Now I have to order this as soon as it comes out! I used to asked who my favorite designer was and I could never answer. I now realize I do have a favorite designer.....YOU! This is just so wonderful and of my favorite season. I am so dieing for it to become autumn. In fact, we just passed a farm with the first pumpkins but could not stop. I was so sad as I cannot wait to buy my first pumpkin of the season. But autumn this year will be busy with moving...
