Broom and Witch Hat Pocket

Photobucket




This little hanger I made up consists of a small broom for a peg rail, nail or hook with a needle punch pocket. The 1692 Witches needle punch was punched using 3 stands of Valdani thread on weavers cloth. I hand sewed a wool yarn around the edge with a dark camel back. It hangs from a black corded braid that loops around a strip of coffee stained cheese cloth I attached a tiny rusty star and a bell and button by a rusty safety pin to the cheese cloth. I slipped some sweet annie sprigs into the pocket. Overall measurements are 12" long x 3 1/2" wide at the bottom. This was designed by me and punched by me. A cute hanger for your Halloween fun!! Thank you for stopping by! Lynn

~Sheep and Willow~

Photobucket




This is last of these reversible frames that I have had, at least for awhile! I am still on the search for more. I decided to stitch up an Everyday stitchery for it. A simple sheep and willow tree piece that can be left out all year. I designed and stitched this piece on coffee dyed osnaburg. The frame measures 9 1/2" tall and at its widest at the base measuring 13 1/2" across, the tiny shelf is a little over 2" deep. There is glass and 2 sawtooth hangers on the back. Simply remove the stitchery from the back by the tabs to change the position so you can use it on your wall or stand it up anywhere in your home.

Primitive Pumpkin Trio

Photobucket




I really enjoyed making up these sweet pumpkins, it was quite a change for me! I used a pattern from Country Stitches for the pumpkins and then added my own finishing touches on each one of them. They were made from osnaburg, stuffed with poly fil, then painted a wonderful burnt orange and then buffed with brimwax. I used twigs from my yard for the stems, added some rusty metal leaves, raffia, homespun, rusty curled wire, dried wheat stem, some natural cornstalk and primitive Fall hang tags. They look really cute grouped all together or your could divide them up and sit them around the house. The largest measures from top of stem 10"high x 7"wide, the medium is 7" high x 5" wide and the smallest is 5"x5".
