Pumpkin Plaid Candy Corn

The official release date for Crazy Patch Boo-nanza is right around the corner, so let's get right to the next Candy Corn in the line up!  The Pumpkins & Plaid corn is all sparkle and texture:


I wish you could see this top-most band in person, it looks like sequined rick-rack!  So shimmery with beads, sequins and Rainbow Gallery's Water N'Ice ribbon:


The pumpkins are fun in a variegated orange with swirly Memory Thread stems:


So many threads and stitches on the plaid section, so fun to stitch!


We're on the home stretch now, just one more corn and one more pumpkin to go!  See you back soon!

Plaid Pumpkin From Crazy Patch Boo-nanza

Last time we looked at the Argyle patterned Candy Corn, today we look at it's companion piece, the second of the club's three pumpkin designs:




The Argyle plaid pattern in the center is made of both sparkly threads and fuzzy threads!


The stripe bands are a fun and very quick stitch:


The outer bands feature more fun flower sequins-- these are holographic orange and oh-so pretty!


I used the same threads for the stems on all three pumpkins, but stitched them all differently:


Only two more corns and one pumpkin left to go!  The club officially starts to ship April 1, so there is still time to get your name on the sign-up list at your favorite LNS.  And once you get started stitching, if you have any questions at all, be sure to contact me here at the blog and I'll be happy to help!

Are you ready for a double dose of Candy Corn?  This one is decorated with them!  The second of two candy-themed candy corns, this one also features a fun Argyle pattern and of course, lots of glitz too!


The top band is gussied up with Memory thread and Swarovski crystal sequins.


The middle is a very fun and quick to stitch Argyle pattern accented with Holographic ribbon for extra sparkle!


The bottom features rows of yummy Candy Corns!


Here is a peek at the unstitched canvas.  Did I mention quick to stitch?
