I can hardly believe that I've now stitched 11 of the 12 designs in this series.  I am mulling over whether to start December's pattern now, or hold off until it is more seasonal.  Stay tuned!

Working on November

Cottage Garden Samplings "November's Chrysanthemum" has been languishing in my UFO for a couple of months now.  I worked on it last night and managed to stitch the alternating orange and brown banner on the top and the pumpkin and pie on the bottom.  I also frogged and fixed a couple of the leaves on the left.  This pattern has a busy border and I still have much to stitch including a couple of apple, corncobs, pumpkins, a cornucopia, and yet more autumnal 

June in January!

So I was able to do this in ten days - being sick has some benefits.

 Trying to use what I had, I changed some of the colours - can you even tell the difference?

Let's see how long it will take me to finish July.
