About this Autumn Pumpkin Teapot Moon Bats embroidery pattern

Autumn Pumpkin Teapot Moon Bats brings celestial and botanical details into a hand-embroidery composition. Study the colored design and outline together before choosing which shapes to shade, outline or simplify. The supplied guide identifies these motifs: A smiling pumpkin-shaped teapot with curved spout and handle, swirling steam, a pale stitched moon, scattered bats and stars, black flowers, lavender foliage, berries, pinecones and acorns.

The colored image is a design reference. Thread, fabric and your stitch choices will affect the finished result. Preserve the open spaces around the smaller motifs and test difficult fills on a spare piece of fabric before stitching the main design.
