Issue 16 is my "Garden Issue", and it's bursting with gorgeous garden themed designs for you to make!
Here are my three new designs for this issue...
...Friendly Garden Apron...
Three
big pockets, and made from three sturdy tea towels so it's perfect for
the washing machine after a morning's work in the garden!
... "a garden is a friend you can visit anytime"...
...Fresh Seed Pockets...
A very pretty place to store your seed packets through every season!
The stitchery could be used on it's own or in another project of your choice!
...My Garden Diary...
Need somewhere to jot down all those wonderful gardening hints you hear of?
Like to keep a record of what needs doing in the garden through the seasons?
Have I whet your appetite for stitching this month?!

Jenny, I shared on Facebook, but didn't get options for photos. It shows the first photo of the embroidered boot instead of the contest.
I tried to share on Pinterest, but got no photos at all there, so there was nothing to pin. I downloaded the photo and uploaded it to Pinterest and put your website in the description.
I was thrilled to do a facebook post and if I get the time I will do a blog post (will let you know if I can). Thank you Jenny for all you do.

Hi Jen
Always a pleasure to receive your blogs and newsletters. Love my Monthly Elefantz to pieces and save a copy so I can re-read. Now I have broken my arm and wrist, I have more time to look and read cause my left arm won't let me do what I want it to do. I just shared your 'Gumboot' blog for all my FB friendlies to see. What a hoot to be able to share - I like sharing too and your FB page is interesting. Am drooling over the embroideries trying to work out how I could hold materials but I still need my wonderful hubbies hand to cut threads and fabric - maybe that's not such a great idea. He is colourblind to some colours so that can be frustrating saying green and he cuts me the blue LOL. Almost October and another Issue will come to my email - can't wait. Bless you Jenny for sharing so much of your talent. I just lost my sister this week so finding your email and reading your blog this morning gave me joy. Hugs from your follower Di
OOOps almost forgot I would like to win too !!! gggg :)
I love you old boot stitchery Jenny. It's gorgeous. I've posted about your lovely giveaway on my blog. Have a great weekend!
Oh yeah - Di Hallam on Facebook :))) Back to working out how I can hang washing - just chuck it over the lines
- hubby is having time out. So hope the wind stays away or I'll be looking for it in the neighbours hobby farms LOLOL
I posted about you on FB, Jenny. My pleasure to share your lovely designs informnation!

I pinned your giveaway Jenny! You are so very kind and enjoy your blog so much!
Love your designs...being a gardener, I especially love those motifs!
Thanks to Marsha at Quilter in Motion for referring readers to your blog. I have shared your blog on FB, signed up for your newsletter and subscribed to your e-magazine. I am anxious to receive the bumper Garden Issue. The set and Gum Boot Fabric bundle would be perfect for my recently retired dil who is very much loving her gardening. Thanks, Linda
Oh my gosh Jenny, so much eye candy and wonderful treasures up for giveaway too...what more could a girl want? Though I have to admit the Gumboot fabrics are just so adorable I would love to have some yardage of each, but there's no need to add my name to the giveaway. I know you understand {{{HUGS}}}. All the same, I'm going over to my facebook now and announce it. Wow, sweet friend, the wonderful designs coming out in this months EH magazine take my breath away!!! Blossoms wonderful Garden Angel is going to be all over my house, she is such a darling treasure. I have so many ideas how to use her, including some gifties for some of the dear ladies in my very small 'Ladies church group'. Our tiny groups monthly breakfast is tomorrow, but, my sweetheart asked me if I would like to ride up into the mountains to see our changing leaves in the morning and I just can't pass up an opportunity to see God's paint brush in action. I will email you some pix after I get them loaded on the computer tomorrow. We are hoping to take the Wing, but I will have to wait and see what my body has to say about that in the morning, as the cooler weather brings with it some pretty severe limitations for me. All the same, even if we have to take the car, we will be going, because once the leaves start turning, here in Utah we only have about a one week window before they lose all color and drop completely. Well, I'm off to face book to shout out your giveaway, then it's off to bed for me. Big Hugs dear friend...
