Last but not least is the newest design in the Faire series....Vineyard Faire!
I have really enjoyed this series, and even though I wouldn't describe myself as a huge purple fan, I just love this one. (Maybe it's all the grape jelly and grape juice I had as a kid :)
I have to say a word about this linen by Grace Notes Fabrics. I just fell in love with the color - Pistachio Frappe - and it has a great hand to it. It's got some variegation and tonal color in it without being too bold. It was a perfect background for this design. I loved it so much that I also stitched the little freebie that shops will receive at market on it.

I'm Robin, the designer behind October House. You've found my blog, where I ramble on about stitching and sewing and anything else that catches my fancy!
I love quiet colors, gentle stitches and making things by hand.
