With Mother's Day right around the corner, the design team is sharing some gift ideas with you.  As you all know, moms like to receive handmade gifts and no one appreciates them quite as much as a mom!

Picks of the Patch

Robbie Herring

I couldn't resist pulling out my Whoo-ligans for this cute pumpkin patch picture.

Quick, simple and prefectly acceptable.

 Now add some strands of embroidery floss as extra borders and around the picture. 

Next, stitch with purple thread around the Noteworthy.

Really add some impact with big flowers and buttons. 

The last little detail is the dots done with slick paint.

Here are a couple of close-ups:

Bo Bunny Supplies:
Patterned Paper: Whoo-ligans Madness, Monsters.

Focus On Forever Fall

It's that time of year where the air is getting crisp and the leaves are falling. The kids are back in school and the pumpkin patches are open. It's the perfect time to shine the spotlight on the collection, 

Forever Fall!
