Historic Stitches - Acorn Harvest Threadkeep

I had a few comments on my last post asking about one of the pieces in my header picture, Autumn Harvest Threadkeep by Historic Stitches. I stitched it back in 2004 and looking back through my blog I realise that I never got round to posting about it. So I've dug back through my photos and here are some close up photos.

And inside, the acorn fabric and the Liberty Hill thread keep came with the kit

Somewhere in the depths of my stash I have a companion piece - Acorn Harvest First Stitch Finders that I really must dig out and stitch!

I have both of these lovely Historic Stitches pieces too Karoline but long ago I dug out the LH accessories and put them to use - Never have gotten around to the stitching part. Your threadkeep is wonderful - thanks for showing the close up shots. Melody

I'm sorry to say that I too have this design and have never stitched it. The only thing I've made use of is the threadkeep. Good for you stitching it, very nice result.
