For our October and November Stitch-a-long projects on Facebook, we will be stitching two fun fall-themed projects: An Oak Leaf Needlebook and an Acorn Fob!
Here’s a little more about this month’s project from Stitch-a-long admin Kate Gaunt:
Our October and November projects come to us courtesy of Denise Pratt and Suzanne Bruno from our Southern Maine Chapter. Suzanne designed an Oak Leaf Needlebook and Denise designed an Acorn Fob. Both projects are made of wool felt and they are fun and quick to stitch. The projects create a wonderful fall-themed stitching set.
