C'est l'automne...

.... et pour le coup , pas que sur le calendrier...parce que depuis quelques jours, ça pique un peu tout de même =)
Automne à l'extérieur alors automne à l'intérieur aussi.
Je l'avais dit, après l'arbre de pâques et avant celui de noël, on a aménagé un petit coin automne dans la maison.
Le voici le voilà =)


Je suis fan =)
Que du naturel. Bon OK, mis à part biensur le gros champignon et le petit en bas à gauche que Super Moitié a réalisé et dont les différentes étapes sont ici =)

Pour accompagner cette déco il fallait bien quelques croix =)
J'ai brodé 2 grilles de Maja, de Snowflowers Diaries.



Ses dessins et ses grilles sont à chaque fois 'à craquer' !
J'en ai brodé une troisième mais elle ne rentre pas dans la déco d'automne alors ce sera pour une prochaine fois =)
En attendant donc que les petits coussins de noël prennent leur place pour quelques semaines, ce sont ces deux là qui sont à l'honneur =)
Pour l'année prochaine il faudra que je me trouve d'autres dessins d'automne à broder parce que c'est bien connu, 2 coussins ce n'est pas suffisant !
A très vite

Autumn is here , and now...it's not only on the calendar ! 
Warm afternoons and shy sun gave place to wind, rain, cold, and rain , rain and rain !!!
We had an awful weekend , orange alert for wind, rain & flood !
Fortunately no damage here, only fever & microbes for the first cold of the year =)
So autumn outside... and autumn inside.
With hubby we wanted to make a kind of autumn tree between the Easter & Christmas one.
And here is what we prepared =D
Everything is natural, except of course the big mushroom and the small one on the left . 
Super Hubby did it  and if you want to see the different steps of its painting don't hesitate to go on his blog here =D

And to match with this autumnal decoration...stitches were needed =D
I chose 2 charts from The Snowflowers Diairies.
OK, I know, I'm addicted to tartans =D


Maja always creates lovely designs and each time I say I have to stitch it...this time I did =)
I also stitched her Lavender Girl , but it's not autumn, I'll show you later.
I'm sure you will see more Maja's designs here for Spring & Easter =)


Those 2 little pillows are now on the shelf in our entry hall... in a few weeks they will be replaced by the Winter one.
For next Autumn I need to find other designs because I really think 2 pillows are not enough =D
Meet you soon here

  3. Hi Valma! Lovely display, well laid out and that huge mushroom is great as a focal point! Lovely vibrant colors and the cushions complement the scene beautifully! I know what you mean about never having enough cushions, Mii is slowly building up the European Cushion Mountain!! ☺ Kind regards, Brian.

      I have to send you pictures of my inside, you can see how warm & cosy it is, or at least that's what we expect =)
      regarding our mushroom, it's not a tray in fact, it's just a plastic placemat and everything is just laying in it , not glued...so that next year it will be different =)

  21. Oh my goodness, what a stunning display! I don't know which piece I like the best!!
    I love the tartan mushroom, and your gorgeous pillows :o) Perfect Autumn display! I think tartan is a great fabric to use... and I have to admit to having had a bit of tartan obsession in my youth - yes, I was a fan of the Bay City Rollers!!!
    Well done to both of you - are you both so talented and I love seeing that things that you both create :o)

    1. wow, thank you very much for your kind words sweetie :)
      we discovered this morning that 2 of the small pumpkins were rotted :-/
      so now the Autumn mushroom is a bit less beautiful =)
      soon Xmas decoration will have to take the place
      hubby did the mushroom like the tartan I bought last time we went to Scotland =D
      I'm in love with it (them...! the tartan AND the mushroom :D)
      have a great weekend my sweet friend
      On Monday I'll post about WW1 and our visit to Villers Bretonneux :)

    I loved the stitched pieces too! :D
