| The gorgeous crocheted pillow was a gift from dear Barbara. I love it! |
Sooo How about it ? Are you in the mood to see my latest house stitch? I have been so far behind on posting stitches lately. I guess if I would stay home I would get more done. Hee! Hee! But in my defense , I have been having soooo much summer fun. 😁😃
Anywhoo. I do have a new stitch to share with you .
I sure hope you like it. 🤗
It is called An Autumn's Day. It is a orange bricked house flanked with tall glorious sunflowers. Now tell me -could you live here?
There is one problem a pesky but adorable crow makes its home on the rooftop, but he is a good fella and as you can see, he loves to pick pumpkins .

I included the date 1823 as a nod to one of my distant ancestors; of course you could change the date to whatever date you would like .
There are 15 DMC floss colors in this piece including: DMC 301, 370, 420, 610, 642, 730, 782, 838, 844, 898, 919, 922, 937, 3825, 3852 .
I stitched An Autumn's Day on 14 count coffee / tea dyed aida. If you would like to see how I dye my fabric check out my Time to Dye post. I warn you though, I am a messy dyer.

Yesterday, I disassembled my summer tiered tray decor. This tiered tray is beside my kitchen corner sink, and it is filled to the brim with clutter as well.
Soon leaves were flying and pumpkins were rolling and in no time the tiered tray was decorated for the fall season .
Lots of chickens and of course all things fall decorate the tiers.
I raise my items using lids underneath and then tuck loose flowers and leaves into the nooks and crannies.
Well , Sweeties. That is what I have accomplished as of yesterday. Time to roll out more pumpkins and decorate the rest of the kitchen.
Have I reminded you lately how wonderful you are? You are the bees knees!

Helloo, the deco is again wonderful. Like it. Well Fall is always colorful although the days are getting shorter now (don't like it).
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your fall house. It is really nice. You know, I will stitch some of your houses when I find the time.
Have a happy day,
Gabi
Good morning, Gabi and Happy Thursday. I really enjoy the warm autumn colors. It is nice to pull out all of the autumn pieces to enjoy. I agree- I do not like the days getting shorter; I would much rather be outside enjoying the summer evenings. LOL. Thank you so much for the sweet visit and have a wonderful day. Hugs.
DeleteLove your Autumn House. The house color is perfect for fall. It’s a great addition to my Pinker neighborhood. Hope you have a great day decorating. 🤗🧡🖤🧡🖤
ReplyDeleteEeeeh I am so excited to hear that you like it, Patti. That just warms my heart. The neighborhood is growing isn't it? Hee! Hee! Have a wonderful day, sweet friend and thank you . Hugs.
DeleteGood Morning sweet friend! Love fbs Autumn House. Still no sewing at the machine and no hand stitching. Maybe today..heehee! DarleneJ
ReplyDeleteStill no sewing? LOL Well that is ok. You are still thinking about it and that is fun too. It has been a couple of weeks since I have sat down to the sewing machine . Maybe I will tonight after the youngins' leave. Have a beautiful day, Darlene. Hugs from the holler.
DeleteWow! Another beauty and in Fall colors. Love the brickwork! Thank you, you're so sweet! 🎃
ReplyDeleteAaah thank you very much, Susie. I really enjoyed stitching the brick. I was inspired by a little orange brick house down the road. Have a fabulous day. Hugs.
DeleteLove your new house - where do you get your wonderful ideas?! Thank you for the new pattern. Blessings!
ReplyDeleteAaah thank you so much, Donna. I had a ball stitching this one. Usually my house designs just come to me at the most unusual times. There is a little orangish brick house down the road that inspired the colors. I have always wanted to stitch an orange house. LOL. Have a wonderful day. Hugs.
DeleteI bet Mr Pinker stays out of the way when you're changing out seasonal displays - lol! Everything is so pretty Melisa, and that little autumn house is adorable.
ReplyDeleteLOL . He does, Linda. Yesterday he spent most of the time at the barn working. I have little piles everywhere as I work. I wish I had a little decorating fairy that would come do it for me. Hee! Hee! Thank you so much for the sweet visit. Hugs.
DeleteLove this house!! Just when I think my list is complete in the order of house stitching there is a new wonderful design. I just printed off Candy Corn house - I finished Aunt Mariah's Autumn Saltbox just last night. Your designs are just so adorable - thank you for sharing!! Carrie
ReplyDeleteHappy Thursday, Carrie. LOL I am always dreaming up new houses. I am so tickled that I can enable you into stitching another house. Hee! Hee! I am so touched that you are working on them. I hope you enjoyed Aunt Mariah's . I enjoyed stitching all of the kitties in that one. My real Aunt Mariah was a quilter; I am not sure if she had cats though. Candy Corn house should stitch up quickly. Have a wonderful day and thank you Carrie. You brightened my day. Hugs.
DeleteWhat a wonderful addition to the neighborhood, Melisa! Your fall tier tray looks fantastic.
ReplyDeleteI am thrilled to have another Autumn house to add to the neighborhood. I think it needd an orange brick house. LOL. Thank you so much Robin. Enjoy your day. Hugs.
DeleteThank you soo much for this lovely pattern. I will take it with me to France medio next week. I love it !

Aaah you are so very welcome, Annelies and thank you for always being so kind and supportive. I hope you enjoy this little house. It is always such a joy to see all of your stitching. Hugs
DeleteFits perfectly with all of your other house themed stitcheries! I pulled out one of your other stitchings to finish up so I can display it this year, cut it wrong last night so onto plan be as to what it becomes!
ReplyDeleteOh , Vicki, I did the same thing with a Christmas stitch the other night. I cut it short on one corner so now I am brain storming on what to do. I guess little boo boos like that leads to brilliant plans. I know you will come up with a fabulous finish. I am so touched that yu stitched on of my designs. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Have a wonderful day . Hugs.
DeleteThank you so much! What a cute house. I love the bricks! Can't wait to stitch it..adding this to my looonnnnggg list of PNP houses to stitch
ReplyDeleteHappy Thursday, Jennifer. I am so grateful that you like this little house. It was fun to stitch the brick . I have always wanted a little orange brick house. I hope you enjoy each and every stitch. It is an honor that you have added it to your list. Enjoy your day and Happy Stitching. Hugs.
DeleteYou have so many lovely Autumnal quilts and stitcheries on display--lovely decorating for this Season, Melisa. Hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteOh thank you so much, Julierose. I am still plugging away decorating and making pieces for the Fall Season. I just adore "pumpkin season" . LoL. Have a beautiful day. Hugs.
DeleteThis new Autumn brick house stitch is just great and Yes! I would gladly live in it. Thank you for sharing it with us. I know this is a repeat but I have to say again that you are so talented in decorating things to please the eye. Your tiered shelf is so cute!
ReplyDeleteAah shucks , Ginny . Thank you so much. I know I sorta overdo it, but I sure do like the "full look. "LOL. Wouldn't it be a delight to live in a house like this one even with a crow living on top of the roof. LOL. I had a ball stitching it. Hugs from the holler.
DeleteThanks for the tip on how you raise items in your tiered tray. Using lids for that is a great idea, Melisa. Autumn's Day is adorable and I even love the crow! I'll be getting those fall bins out soon :)
ReplyDeleteYou are so welcome, Jeanna. I save the flat glass candle lids and put them in the tiered tray. They are very handy. I hope you have a great time decorating . I have been bustling about all day with fall decor. It is a job , but loads of fun to do .I can not wait to see your Olga's Stocking with your fall decor. Happy decorating and thank you. Hugs.
DeleteIsn't that cute! I love the orange and white bricks, and Mr. Crow sitting on the roof with his pumpkins. And, of course, the sunflowers! I haven't stitched any of your houses yet, so this one is definitely going on my list!
ReplyDeleteAaaw, well thank you, Diann. I have always had an affection for orange houses. There is an orangish brick house not far from where I live that inspired me on the house color. I always enjoy something a little different.. Have a great day and Happy quilting and stitching. Hugs.
DeleteIt's a lovely embrodery, Melisa!
ReplyDeleteHugs
Aaw thank you so much, Isabel. You are always so kind. Have a beautiful and blessed day. Hugs.
