I've always love the rich palette of autumn. In keeping with my stitching schedule abeit slightly late, I completed Spot of Autumn.
Design: Spot of Autumn
Designer: The Drawn Thread
Fabric: 32 count Cream Italian Linen
Fibers: DMC & Weeks Dye Works
Stitching this has been a work of frustration and trial of patience. Have you ever felt like you did more frogging than actual stitching on a piece? This was one such case. Other than the red flowers on the bottom left, I must have stitched everything at least twice and the pumpkins three times! I'm reminded once again why it nearly became a UFO two years ago.
So has all that fuss been worth it? I certainly hope so. It sure is pretty, isn't it? Only winter left :)
I also managed to complete Part 2 of iStitch Mystery SAL.

I actually finished Part 3 last night as well but have yet to take a picture. Now it's on to Romantique Sampler.
Happy Stitching!

Very pretty stitches!
That's a beautiful autumn sampler Veronica! I really love those pumpkins. Too bad they gave you a hassle!! I hate that too when one particular piece just won't work with you, but against you...arghhh. Love the mystery sal progress!!

I'm sorry you had to frog so much - but it is definitely very pretty! Nice stitching on the SAL too.
Your DT piece is gorgeous! I love their designs and I hope you'll carry on and finish it :o)
Oh lovely! I can't wait to see part three :o)
Sorry to hear of your troubles with that design. At least it's over, and crossed fingers that the winter part is frog-free.
Just out of curiosity, why the spaces in the design. Is there a charm or a button involved?
All of your frogging will be well-worth the effort--that is one gorgeous piece :)
Your autumn sampler looks beautiful. Nice progress on the SAL.
Oh yes!! It's definitely worth it and esp. since that completes 3/4 of your set!!
iStitch mystery is looking great. :D Can't wait to see your Romantique WIP after this weekend. :)
