Photo of a framed needlework model, with glass (so there is shadowing) being held by a hand on the left side of the space. The design is in autumn hues of warm yellows, tans, reds and a deep autumnal green. The outer cross stitched border is in a Greek border style with a variegated yellow to red fibre. There are several motifs in the design associated with autumn in Vermont, including a fall maple leaf in the upper right, a stylized autumn forest in the middle left and a butterfly in the centre bottom third. Other motifs include a string of lanterns done in beads adjacent to the top maple leaf, a fence made of gold and green bugle beads at the 1/3 point, and grassy bushes below the forest at the 2/3 point. This was an exclusive design taught by Karen E. Dudzinski at the Stitchin' in Vermont event in 2024.

So here is an exclusive design I did for teaching at the #StitchinInVermont Retreat this year. Apologies for the glare, it's one of the few models with glass.
