Fall Leaf Stepping Stone

During Vacation Bible School for adults at my church we made stepping stones and painted them.  Mine turned out really big.  The lady who taught us how to do this brought some huge leaves for us to use.  They are made out of concrete and painted with acrylic paints.  I guess they take about a month to cure completely.  Here are my pics.

Fall Napkins

I've only done two out of six of these so far.  They are turning out nicely.  It is just a simple split stitch design.  I got the leaf designs free off the internet. (pattern excerpt from Small Stitches Booklette by Carina Envoldsen-Harris, www.wardi.dk )  I printed out the patterns on Sulky Solvy and hooped them, then pulled out the little pieces of paper after stitching.




I'm using DMC floss I had on hand.  The fabric napkins are from Target and they are died with Apple Green Rit Dye.
