Bush Blog: September 2017

Harvest Hop 2017

September has arrived so quickly this year, and with it has come the Harvest Hop Market. Teri and I are very excited and have been busy these past few months getting our offerings ready to show. I hope that you will enjoy looking through them and finding just the perfect project or two to get your Autumn off to a great start. So have fun...if we can answer any questions, just give us a call.

Come join us for the Shop's Market Weekend on September 21-23--from noon to 5:00. We will be celebrating our Shepherd's Bush Birthday on September 21 as a part of market week. We have been open for 33 years. What a great time we have had. We are hoping to have in lots of new things from the Hop as well as some extra surprises to enjoy. I am planning to serve my homemade ice cream and I don't know what kind of cake we will have. Something to think about.

Spooky Notes

leaflet: $8.00

skull and frame: $32.00

kit also available

Teri's newest notes pattern is all decked out for Halloween. Yay. Filled with ghosts, spiders, pumpkins and tombstones it will be such a lot of fun to stitch and have ready for the big day. It is stitched on 32 count linen with overdyed cotton threads and a fabulous set of buttons. Then finish it off with Jill's spooky skull and bones frame. Ready, set, go.....

Thankful Be

Kit: $70.00

This sweet kit is filled with a lovely hand-dyed 32 count linen and gorgeous overdyed silk threads. A packet of sweet little buttons will complete your piece. A lovely tribute to our harvest season.

Gather Joy Pin Cushion

kit: $20.00

Pea Pod Velveteen: $7.00

This little cushion is a darling companion to Thankful Be. Stitched on 32 count Lambswool linen with overdyed cotton threads it will truly be a joy to stitch. The backing fabric is not included in the kit, we used a fabulous new color of velveteen from Lady Dot. the color is Pea Pod, an amazing green color that is perfect with the pincushion.

Boo to Ewe

kit: $30.00

free pattern with button: $8.00

Here is our adorable little button kit for this Halloween season. The kit includes everything you will need to complete the pincushion shown below or you can get just the pattern and button and choose your own supplies to stitch on. Whichever way you choose, it will make you smile.

Halloween Sheep Tag

kit: $8.00

Halloween Pumpkin Tag

kit:8.00

All year I have wanted Teri to design Halloween tags. I think they are just darling. She has placed them on bottles of spooky pop potions, but I think they would also be wonderful tied on little treat bags to give my friends on Halloween. We will probably also tie them on our spooky tree for the season. Enjoy!

Little Black House Tin

kit: $20.00

This little pincushion is just waiting to sit by your side as you stitch. The kit comes with 32 count linen, overdyed cotton threads, and the little tin to complete the cushion.

Hand dyed Ribbon

4 yards: $6.00

Summer in Utah is the perfect time for dyeing ribbons--lots of dry heat and beautiful sunlight to caress the colors. Teri has spent many hours outside in back of the shop working on her rainbows of ribbons, and hopefully they will be wrapped and ready to go.

Shepherd's Bush Scissor Fobs

$10.00

I only make these a few times during the year, and this is one of them. I have an sweet assortment of patterns that hopefully will tempt you as jewelry for your scissors.

I am off to finish up these designs and kits and make them ready for pleasure. We are planning to add to this blog as the weekend progresses so that you will be able to see many more of the delightful things which we will be ordering in from the rest of the Hop. Until then...Tina and Teri

Please check back for other great new designs from other designers to follow.....

I are so sorry this has taken us a bit to post the new things from the Hop, We have had a crazy week, kitting, wrapping ribbon, making fobs,and packaging buttons. I thought we were ready, but not so much. We are finally catching up and so here we go.
