Last week I went to my monthly guild meeting and look at the beautiful display that two of our members set up. One of them stitched all of those fabulous Prairie Schooler acorns. Aren’t they cute?! I think these are from a leaflet called, if you can believe it, Acorns (No. 65) – go figure. Such a sweet little addition along with the basket of gourds to the snack table.
I’ve made very little progress on Garden of Eerie, just getting started on the tree.
Most of my time has been spent on And They Sinned. I’ve spent so much time back and forth ripping out and restitching the clouds and I was determined to get it fixed. I brought this piece with me to guild night as my show and tell of what I’m currently working on.
I finally got the clouds lined up and in the right spots, and then went to work filling in the right hand side. It took all weekend, but I’ve got it filled in now. I stitched through a Teen Mom marathon on MTV and then all of Season 2 of Laguna Beach. That’s a lot of cloud filling in!
And you can see that I worked on the vines on both sides in order to help with cloud placement. I also filled in the little motifs inside the clouds. Next step is to start on the center portion of the cloud. I’ll be so glad to use a color other than Pebble, that’s for sure. My photo is a little crooked, but when I take pics on Monday morning, I’m still a little bleary-eyed.
It looks like it’s going to rain this morning, and I’m wishing the weather would cool off just a tad more. If I could get my allergies under control and get over feeling like crap I would be very very happy. I’ve signed up for a 10k on Saturday, so I’d better get to feeling better asap!
I am grateful for some stitching time.
Great progress on your WIPs! I’m always so thankful to get through a part that gives me difficulty for whatever reason. Just glad it’s over!
Your guilds fall table is gorgeous. I really like the acorns and that glass bowl.
Those acorns are amazing! I would love a basket of those. Great progress on your wips. x
Love those acorns, just gorgeous! I’d love to do something similar myself, have a basket of stitched acorns. I only have one so far…;)
Your WIPs look great, congratulations on getting the clouds done!
Wow, what a wonderful display at your guild meeting! I would like a cookie please! Yum!
Beautiful progress photos! So happy you figured out all your cloud placement!
The autumn table is amazing! I love the acorns and the cookies look very tempting, too. Thanks for sharing.
What a pretty display at your guild meeting! Love your Garden of Eerie, but what catches my attention of course is your ATS. Beautiful!!!! Oh, I’m not looking forward to the cloud. lol! Hope you’re feeling better soon.
Hey, great progress on that cloud! YGG! Sorry about the frogging, but you’ll be zipping along once it’s done. I love your GoE, too!
The autumnal display at your guild is AMAZING!! I love those acorns. ACK! I’m smacking myself for not stitching more seasonal things.
Great progress on ATS – you got that thing almost licked! I did stitch on ATS yesterday. Need to take a photo and post something on my blog. It did stitch really slowly yesterday – don’t know why.
Eerie is also looking good. Keep on stitching. Hope those allergies bid you adieu soon.
Those acorns are so cute. I love your WIP – good for you for sticking with the clouds!
Those acorns are darling!!!
Acorns! GO figure 🙂 LOL! I love it…and now…I think I must stitch them, I’ve got the leaflet!

Great progress on your WIP’s!! What a nice pic from your guild. The fall table is lovely, those acorns are wonderful!!
I love those PS acorns! I guess that chart is OOP?
Очень красивые жёлуди, хочется их разглядеть их ближе!
Goodness, you really ripped all of that out? You’re so brave! And such a perfectionist! But well worth it, I think. What a stunning piece. Garden of Eerie too, by the way.
Hope you feel better soon!
Lovely Autumn decorations! I love the Prairie Schooler acorns, and the cookies look delicious!
Your stitching is always so pretty. Enjoy your projects! Garden of Eerie looks like so much fun!

I love your seasonal displays, Michele!! 😀
The PS acorns are so gorgeous. I once stitched one for an exchnage and it was pure fun. Even the finishing. And I have always wanted to stitch them all for me, too, but nothing so far.
Love your WIPs, very nice progress.
They both look lovely, great progress
