Hello again dear readers.......it's a bright and sunny autumn day here after a lot of cold, windy, rainy days...
........and here is my red fox pincushion to share with you.....a cross stitch motif that i designed a while ago and decided to use for this little project with some pretty autumn coloured fabric scraps.....
.........the pattern is in my etsy shop...link in sidebar......if you would like it.....below you can see the stitching in progress...it is stitched on even weave linen but could also be stitched on aida fabric.....
.......like the little tag below, cross-stitched onto pale grey aida.......
..........this week there is a lot of hand quilting going on here as i'm working on this autumn irish chain quilt made from lots of scraps and jelly roll strips found during my recent sewing room sort out....
......here it is on my quilt cupboard door....along with my adorable little vintage style bear called honey, made for me by the talented shelley who can be found on instagram as @ada_bee_....
...........also here is my biggest fabric pumpkin so far :).......
..........red fox pincushion shown below on the work in progress autumn quilt.....

Lovely autumnal post dear Helen!!
I downloaded the little fox, couldn't resist, have my thread at the ready, just a little more time would be useful. :)
How cute is little Honey in among the pumpkins!!
Wishing you a lovely crafty week,

Great Autumn post love the color .
Autumn is here with us now so many trees are starting shed their leaves.
I love the little cross stitch fox! All of your autumn colors are so so pretty and love the red polka dot pumpkin. Everything is just wonderful there! xox Marilyn
What a cute little fox stitchery! I love him! Your bear is so cute too.. I hope you show some more close-ups on him next time. I enjoyed all your photos, you really are a skilled photographer and a master at artistically arranging your items. ((hugs)), Teresa :-)

The stone wall with leaves path is autumn. Cute fox. Fabric pumpkins!
Happy Autumn!
Always beautiful photos!!
Lots of loveliness as usual. The fax is adorable - I wouldn't be able to stab him with a pin! Jo x
I've just discovered your blog and I love your style and everything you make! The fox pin cushion is adorable and I really like cross stitch combined with patchwork.
