~ Sitting & Stitching a Spell ~

~ Hello Friends & Folk ~

 it is hotter than the hinges of Hell here today!

... our chickens are panting and the dogs 

well, they are trying to find the zippers to their fur-suits to take them off!

thankfully,

the air conditioning has been a relief indoors ~

and so I've been working on this little stitch

wanting to make a companion piece to my little

 Rest Thy Scissors pattern & box;

I wanted to use some of my own fabric that I designed, 'candle light walk' 

{available HERE}

love it!!

stuffed it with some of Peter's organic sawdust,

and added Dames of the Needle's fabulous mini pom-pom trim in 'Colonial Tea' 

{www.damesoftheneedle.com}

here is the finished back, 

with fussy-cut fabric to showcase my candle light witch, and the trim all stitched on;

and here is what Peter made for it ~

thee sweetest little spooky pincushion chair 

to match my Rest Thy Scissors box!

teensy-tiny little spool feet!

I am working on more seasonal designs for this little chair, so it can stay out and be YOUR companion all the year through ~

the linen I used is 32ct Weekd Dye Works "Tin Roof"

threads used: 

Weeks Dye Works: Pamlico, Kohl & Tin Roof 

Gentle Art Threads: Sarsaparilla

2 threads over 2 strands of linen

stitch count: 42w x 37h

PDF / paper pattern & finished pincushion chair

will be available soon ;)

Blessings from the Farm
