My daughter @andiekins moved from a posh life in a Dallas suburb, but then moved way out into the country to pursue a self sustainable farm. She is all about veggies and growing them without pesticides. When the Farmer's Market is open, they sell their fresh produce there. One of the things she loves is when the seed packets come in from Johnny's Select Seeds. You can visit the website HERE.
When I found this pattern, I knew it was something she would love to hang in her farmhouse kitchen. So I picked up the pattern and threads. I had 14-count aida cloth so I started on the first of the four pieces. I decided to work on the squash because my daughter loves my squash cassarole. It is a delish recipe with cheese, butter, and eggs. It is one of my favorites as well. While I stitched the squash piece, I could just taste the goodness.
At one point, my daughter asked if it would be possible to put the name of their town where it said "Fredonia, NY". This would not be an issue for sure. Then mentioned that they would be changing things in the farmhouse and would the pieces to be no larger than the size of a 5x7 picture. I then looked at the pice and realized I was off by one. So, a change needed to be done. I was stopping work on this and starting over. I would try something new so I did not make the same miscounting.
I watched a video at one time that showed a woman marking her canvas with a contrasting thread every ten squares both horizontally and vertically. It resembles the pattern's structure.
I am hoping she will be thrilled with the new 18-count size and the New Morning Acres name will be placed on the seed packet.
As for the Yellow Squash Casserole recipe my daughter loves so much, I fear it is not my own. It can be found at the Low carb yum website. You can find the recipe HERE. Keep in mind I always add cheese and if pork rinds are not your thing, use crackers. We do the other to keep it gluten free.
Thank you so much for taking time to read my piece. Next week I hope to share about my silhouetted darling piece.
