New Curtain I made and Crow sitter I forgot I had and my new candle mat.

Today I made me a new kitchen curtain, my first curtain. Then it hit me today, hey I won a scarecrow shelf setter off  ebay a while back and forgot that I had it, so I decided to put the shelf sitter in  my enamel pan with my other fall goodies. And last   is a picture of the new candle mat that I finished.My second candle mat.

New Bonnet

This is a new pattern that I am trying, it is a little different than the other bonnets that I have made. This pattern was a little simplier for me. I like both styles of bonnets really. But I enjoyed making this one, the pattern wasn't quite as frustrating. I still need to coffee stain it.
