Stitch In Time

I have been so busy stitching getting ready for the Autumn fair in October

 Tissue Holders, Gift Card Holders

 Fleece hats for babies

 Candy Cane Mice, Candy Cane Horses, Mini felt stockings

 Candy Cane Owls

 Bottle Aprons

 Gingerbread Men Pomanders

Hats for toddlers.

This all mainly samples the stock that is made is all packaged now, still have more hats to do, waiting delivery on some blank baby bibs and some clear vinyl for another range of items.

I have been having a great time :-)

Autumn Has Arrived

Its a great feeling finishing a project, 

Yes its up on the wall, I wasn't looking forward to the joining together but bit the bullet and got it done this morning, it was really painless and went nice and smoothly.

Here is a few more autumn things I have now put out

Mr Pumpkin Man he is from an Alan Dart pattern and was knitted about 7 years ago.

Quilted Sunflowers, this was done about 3-4 years ago, you cant really see the bead detail on it, and the edging was blanket stitched with a variegated thread.

Knitted Mr Prickles another Alan Dart pattern,

 Mr Prickles is heading off to hibernation with his hot water bottle again he was knitted about 4 years ago.

The pumpkins I have shown before, there is a little crochet one, the denim one and the small fabric one I made the other week.

I fancy doing some cushion covers now and a table runner, I have purchased some embroidery designs and as the weather is predicted to be rotten over the next few days I might just get some done.

More of the Autumn Panel

The other day I completed section 3 of the panel

The  one that went wrong

I was having a bad day, and didn't notice until I finished it I had put the background fabric on back to front,

so I had to re-do it 

Section 3 re-done

Having re-done I then decided I didn't like how section 2 had turned out so I made another section 2

Section 2 I didn't like

Section 2 re done

Today I got section 4 done

 Yes I am happy with this I love the material that's been used for the sky

And this is where it sits in relation to the other sections

Having to re-do 2 of the sections has put me back a bit I was hoping to have at least 2 of the panels completed, never mind there is bad weather coming so I can stay in the cabin and get it finished this week I hope, although I am heading off to Milton Keynes to spend a couple of days in the shop. 

This morning I went to craft club in Pendacar and spent the morning showing them how to make the little pumpkin ornaments

Last year I made the big one out an old pair of jeans and used real dried leaves to decorate, I also made the little crochet one last year, looking at it now it needs a leaf added to it. 

The week end I want to get my Autumn display out so I better get a move on and get it finished.
