Absolutely adorable.  You have so much patience for the details.

the pattern is by Judy Craddock, Autumn.  It's part of a 4 season group.  You could easily do fusible on machine too.

That is simply beautiful, Dee.

thanks Shelley.  It makes me smile every time I walk past it.  Now I need to figure out the next hand work project.  I purchased a little Christmas tree embroidery project at a show recently, I may do that one next.  I am still looking for a good background for the Thimble blossoms pattern. I want to find a white with tiny black specs (almost flea size) but everything I've found the dots are large and I think they'll distract from the pattern.  I might have to come up with something else, but I definitely don't want cream.  And I don't think I want the usual white on white as needling that stuff isn't particularly fun.  Maybe a white shirting fabric with a light shadowy plaid.  

thank you ladies.  You guys are always such an encouraging audience. 

Dee came across something that might work for your black on white.  I'm sorry I don't know how to copy n paste on the iPad.

I like Quilted Twins.  They have good sales.  

That really came out nice! Never say never on the fancy details, they do really add something so special!
