Welcome to my day for the Out of the Dark Blog Hop!
Be sure to check out what everyone else has posted today as well.

For my project I decided to make a mini wall-hanging for my cube at work. And since I've started collecting gnomes, I thought what better to make than a gnome with his pumpkin for the season.
Roughly 8" by 10" made from an enlargement of a free coloring page that I found online. All fabrics are from my scraps. Mr Gnome fabrics were in my prefused scraps. =) Pumpkin is an embroidered applique.Hanging in my cube at work.
Backing shown at work because I forgot to take a pic of it at home...oops. The striped backing and binding, also from scraps.
Gratitudes:
1. For improving test results from the arthritis doc on my gout.

Always neat to have smaller projects - they display nearly anywhere. Thanks for sharing.
