or simpler like the fall theme ones!

Who doesn't love some cute fall friends?

I also have been playing with paper piecing,and making mushroom pincushions!!

And finally doing some more mushrooms sewingin the form of cross stitching!

pattern from a 2023 agenda book, from Veronique Enginger (aka Les Brodeuses Parisiennes)
that one is an on going project,as it takes me a while to stitch it all!
Happy sewing!
