I love Crabapple Hill patterns and thought these were very cute,I've made a few of them in different sizes to use in place of the little gourds and pumpkins I normally buy for Autumn decor,these I can just pack away with my other Autumn stuff at the end of the season!

Kathryn, I LOVE Crabapple Hill patterns! I've done Which Witch's Boot, 2 of the Christmas pillow cases, the sampler snowman, the two snowmen setting up the Christmas tree pillow and am currently working on the "Q" block from the Christmas quilt pattern. Going to do the pumpkin thimble bouquet and Calendula Patterdrip next. They are so beautiful and I love the crayon work.

Have you ever tried Birdbrain patterns? Birdbraindesigns.net the patterns are simple and fun and there are many free ones on the web site. The Dunroven towels they sell are awesome for embroidery.

Can you tell that I love embroidery? I am also a quilter and often use the 2 together.
