Greetings! I’ve
been catching glimpses – early in the morning or as dusk is falling – early
signs of autumn splendor! My favorite time of year will soon be here. A few
early autumn leaves floating down here and there… cornhusks drying on my Indian
corn… a briskness to the air as the sun is rising… and just last night a flock
of nighthawks riding the air currents. One of my favorite memories is sitting
with my grandfather on his front stoop watching the nighthawks swooping down to
catch some tasty morsel of an insect… My offerings this month are signs of
early autumn splendor as well…
My
first offering is Early Autumn Splendor Table Mat. Based on a design by Cath’s
Pennies Designs, this table mat measures approximately 8.5 by 19 inches. It
features beautiful hand-dyed wool leaves that look real, but you needn’t worry
about them crumbling over time. It is completely handsewn and is backed with an
autumnal homespun. The edges are finished with a blanket stitch of perle
cotton.
Early Autumn Splendor Table Mat is offered at $44 plus shipping.
My
pinch pocket this month was inspired by the table mat. These pinch pockets are
perfect for a small spool of thread, a small pair of embroidery scissors, and
even a few other notions. Early Autumn Splendor Pinch Pocket measures
approximately 4 inches across and 3 inches tall. Items are stored safely inside
until you gently press the two corners together to open. Falling autumn leaves
are stitched in hand-dyed floss to echo those lovely and unique autumn leaves
that will soon be falling outside.
The pinch pocket is backed with a golden
pumpkin plaid and lined in a golden pumpkin wool.
~*Sold. Thank you ever so much!*~

Hope
you enjoy signs of early autumn splendor in your corner of the world!
Blessings, Patti
