Design Wall Monday - October 20, 2025

 Good Morning Quilters!

This week has been busy, as usual.  I didn’t get much work done on my quilting UFOs.  However, I did work on some crafty things.  Here are the little crocheted pumpkins that I was working on.  I used cinnamon sticks for the stems, and added a little curled part of a grapevine from my woods.  These will look cute as decorations from now through Thanksgiving.  The directions are free on the internet on several sites.



The second “non UFO” project I worked on this week:  I am making a Christmas stocking for a little girl.  Her Grandmother is a friend of mine and she brought over several of her cute baby clothes from her first Christmas (which was last year).  We cut out pieces from them and I stabilized them with a backing. 

We got as far as making a general plan on how the pieces will fit onto the stocking shape.  Next I will sew pieces together and make a patchwork stocking.for this Christmas.  Here’s one side:


I think this “a stocking from a baby’s first Christmas clothes” is a new fad, and I had not heard of it before now.  I see that it is popular on Etsy sales.   Here is the other side:



This last picture is a sample of what our trees look like around here.  I love fall.
