Nine months into our Year of Wreaths, it's time to celebrate autumn!
September's wreath tutorial features berry-red yarn, felt oak leaves, sparkly thread, and an embroidered line of poetry: the opening line of John Keats famous ode to Autumn, Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness...
I am a teeny bit obsessed with this metallic thread!
It's seriously shiny and really easy to stitch with - something that will come as a surprise if you've ever tried to embroider anything with metallic embroidery thread (so many knots! and so much stress! ugh!). This stuff is fab, I love it and kind of want to use it for everything.

"Season of mists" - I like that, seasons should be valued for what they are and we have to look for what makes us feel nice during a season (I can't find that for winter yet, maybe the first snow???). Autumn is so controversial but, no doubt, the season with the most beautiful colors!
ReplyDeleteI love this wreath, it is so pure. My children would prefer the mushroom wreath but I really like the other one. Thank you for this beautiful idea.

bairozan - autumn definitely brings some beautiful colours! I totally agree about valuing each season for their special characteristics, there's something a bit magical about each one :)
