Oops! Bye, Bye, September
I missed switching out everything at the beginning of October due to my daughter's wedding and I had so many new Halloween stitches I decided to wait to set them up until they are all FFO'd (which should be later today and tomorrow).
Here is a photo of a few of my Fall projects before I switch them out for Halloween. I'm going to leave the leaf quilt up through Thanksgiving because I just love the colors.
The stitches displayed are: Stitching Seasons series: "Autumn" and the "September": Monthly Weigh-In series from Stitching with the Housewives, "Fall is in the Air" from It's Sew Emma, Mad for Plaid series: "Autumn" from Hands on Design, and "I Love Fall Most of All" from Primrose Cottage.
The runner on the table is one of my woven pieces. You didn't know I used to be a weaver, did you? I had a 54" 6-treaddle Harrisville Designs loom that I had to sell due to health issues. The runner was a traditional overshot colonial pattern woven on a non-traditional jute warp with a non-traditional nylon weft. I miss weaving, but cross stitch is filling the void.
No, I did not make the quilt, but I absolutely fell in love with it when I saw it post to Etsy. I had to purchase it.
