Love it, and I must say, I do like the way you left off some of the beads---this was such a fun one to stitch and I intend on doing at least one more variation soon. It's such an easy design to adapt to different color variations!!

The Autumn Glendon Place compass is superb...just the right amount of beads!

I'd like to do at least one more, also. I'm thinking it would be really pretty in Christmas colors, and maybe some braid instead of beads. Oh oh oh - or over one, just the stitching. This is a design that could just go on forever with so many possibilities.

This is beautiful!

I love the earthy colors. I miss autumn. We don't get a spring or an autumn here. I'm homesick now.

WOW that is even more gorgeous Debby and I agree the design has many possibilities - wonder which you will try next?

Thanks, Allyn. I love LOVE autumn. Spending most of my life in southern California, I had never experienced seasons until I moved to Colorado. Now I feel sad for those poor souls who don't get to know the four seasons. At least you had the seasons at one point, right?

Thanks - my first thought was Christmas, but then I keep thinking other things - it could be done in birthstone colors for birthday gifts or even for a new baby. It could be done in favorite team colors, seasonal colors, and even just one color. The possibilities really are endless.

Yes they are endless Debby - but um which one are you going to do next?

That is fabulous Debby, well done. Love the colours you chose & the beads set it off to perfection. A wonderful finish

Beautiful! The beading you did was wonderful! I'm almost inspired to try some beading now. Really scared of it, but this piece looks just so lovely!

I love your choice in which beads to add and which to keep off. You have a real artist's eye for this. This is a beautiful finish.

I don't know how many more beads were originally specified, but this looks absolutely beautiful!

It's really such a lovely piece! Would love to see it done in different shades & theme! Looking forward on your next one!

Such an amazing Autumn finish, Debby! So beautiful!

I picked up my Autumn Friendship Compass yesterday - Tammy at Hobby Lobby did an outstanding job, as usual. I had it double framed (like I did with Pumpkin Swirl), with the glass between the two frames.

Squirrel · Post by **Squirrel** » Wed Nov 11, 2015 11:14 pm

WOW Debbie that is awesome. Love it and the frame is oh so right for it too.

LadyS · Post by **LadyS** » Thu Nov 12, 2015 1:34 am

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous!

I really do love how that turned out, Debbie!

salome · Post by **salome** » Thu Nov 12, 2015 1:57 am

So beautiful!! The framing is excellent and really makes the design pop!

AlwaysGoofy · Post by **AlwaysGoofy** » Fri Nov 13, 2015 5:27 pm

I love the depth that the double framing gives. I would never have thought to do that, but it just looks so stunning I'll have to play around with the idea when I finally get to finish and frame my next finish.

Thank you for sharing.

Stunning. The frame is perfect. Have to remember double framing as an option. Absolutely beautiful (If it sounds like I'm gushing its because I am. Something about this one is very appealing!)

Thanks! I have to admit that I was almost gushing when she showed me the framed piece.
