Free-Motion Maple Leaf Embroidery + a Free Project for Fall
Give this Free-Motion Maple Leaf Embroidery a Try! Is it a free-motion maple leaf or a thread painted maple leaf? Sulky uses these terms somewhat interchangeably. However, thread painting is a more detailed representation of the work. Notice the layers of colors and shading put into this maple leaf, using only thread!

An Easy Burlap Table Runner Perfect For Your Fall Table
Not that you could tell by the temperatures outside, Fall is in full swing. That means it’s time to make some fun Fall-ish stuff for the house (Don’t tell my hubby, he thinks we have too many Fall decorations as it is).

Just like in the Halloween Designs post, the picture is linked to the design in the Sulky Embroidery Club so you can just click the picture to head on over and buy the design.
