Fair Square Round #9 & RAK for Vonna




I had a great Fair Square partner in Joan. She stitched part of Strawberry House by LHN and did a beautiful job. I love it, thanks again, Joan!

I stitched Tanya's adorable Pumpkin House freebie for Joan on 32 ct. Lambswool. I changed the roof to a bright blue since Joan loves blue, and used Crescent Colors' Fallen Leaves for the house color.

Also, I had fun with a little RAK for Dame Vonna of the Generous Heart. I made a Floss Tag/Needle Rest for her from Blackbird Designs, changing up the colors a bit to make them more autumnal. There are a few pins in this and I used my favorite technique of painting the pins with nail polish to match. It works like a charm. Vonna does so much for everyone (organizing the Fair Squares site for one, hello!) that she deserves a little kindness every now and then.
