Pin the other elements to the project, and begin stitching them down with the ones on the bottom-most layer first. The more I worked with the shapes, the more I felt I needed a few more, so I cut an additional apple, pear and maple leaf, then eliminated the yellow squash. I began with putting the leaves down, then arranging more on top. Then arrange your fruits and vegetables as you like. Stitch the sections using either a whip stitch, or a blanket stitch, as you like.
When you have all your pieces cut out, begin arranging the cornucopia sections first, placing them in a position towards the left side, leaving room on the edge for seam allowance. Keep little bits pinned to the base in a corner so you won’t lose them. When cutting out the smaller bits, it is easier to cut to an inside point from two directions rather than try to tun the inside corner with the scissors. I’ll be using two of the apples and pears, and one of everything else on mine.īegin by cutting out the pattern pieces, and arranging on the appropriate colors of wool. If you want a larger wall hanging, just start with a bigger base and cut 2-3 of each item, to go in the cornucopia. I’ve given you several fruits and vegetables, and you can make your own choices as to which and how many to use.

The pattern download is here – Wool Stitch Along Cornucopia Pattern. The design will do well on a larger base if you prefer, and a 16-inch would work well for a pillow. You’ll need a 12-inch square of wool in a base color, and scraps of fall inspired colors for the fruits and vegetables. I do hope you like the design of a overflowing cornucopia! We will work the wool design on a 12-inch base, then embellish it, and finish in your choice of a pillow or wall hanging. I have designed a pattern for you that will be appropriate for not only early fall, but will carry all the way through to Thanksgiving. Here we go!! Today we begin with the wool stitch along project.
