Fall Stitchery and then some

I made this lovely pin cushion this week using the pattern designed by Kaaren Johnston of http://thepaintedquilt.blogspot.com/2012/09/first-friday-freebie-31-with-tutorial.html
 
 
Her stitcherie patterns are wonderful and she shares many of them freely.  This pattern came with a super simple tutorial.  I really think I made a great copy of her work with the exception of the pins.  She had wonderful artsy pins and I have basic yellow heads.

 
The pattern fully surrounds the piece.  I really enjoyed making this piece.


                                    

Now this lovely package represents my win from Jane of   janesquilting.blogspot.com .  It was her giveaway during the Dots on Dots Blog Hop.  The package contains 2 half yard cuts of my choice from the Fat Quarter Shop.
