November Cross-stitch Smalls

Posted on November 6, 2019 by craftycreeky

Having shown you my most recent make yesterday I thought I’d better share my little display of smalls for November…

Of course my two most recent makes take pride of place, the two autumn cross-stitches are both free patterns, leaves one by Faby Reilly and one with a blackbird by Thea Dueck…

Another one by Faby Reilly which I display each November for Remembrance Day is the poppy humbug, it’s beautiful…

The bumble bee small is still one of my favourites and although the bees aren’t around now it’s cold, the colours are very autumnal! This pattern was from Etsy I think.

The cat and the flower wreath are ones I made years ago, in fact the wreath one was a small I gave my mum many years ago, so I got it back when we were sorting her things out! I think that was a Just Nan pattern. The cat was a mini Lanarte kit. The pear in the background helps to support the others!

Autumn cross-stitch smalls

I’ve finally managed to collect an autumnal display of smalls – and next month I can get all my Christmas ones out 🙂

About craftycreeky

I live in a busy market town in Yorkshire with my husband, kids, dogs and chickens. I love trying new crafts, rediscovering old ones, gardening, walking...anything creative really I started this blog after my New Year resolution worked so well. My resolution (the first one I've ever kept!) was to post a photograph of my garden on Facebook every day. My hope was that I would then see what was good in the garden and not just weeds and work, which was my tendency. The unexpected side-effect was that I have enjoyed many more hours in the garden. I am hoping that 'The Crafty Creek' will have the same effect. Happy creating!

    I absolutely love your collections – they’re beautiful! For the wreath with the pink border and rose on top – is that piping that’s been added to make the border or a row of stitching? It looks amazing.

    I love your smalls collections each month, such a great idea. I also like the look of the pear.
