Presenting Autumn Splendor

From yesterday’s photo shoot:

Photo credit goes to the very talented Joe Decker of Rockslide Photography.  (If you haven’t visited his website, you should – his nature photography is absolutely stunning.)

Please also click in for the larger version of the leaves – Joe caught the color and delicacy of the embroidery perfectly, but it doesn’t show well in the small version.

Autumn Splendor is now complete except for the sewing-in of the label.  Unfortunately, that will likely have to wait until I get back – I’m leaving the Bay Area in about half an hour on a business trip, and still need to pack! so the label will need to wait for my return.  (Unless I can fit Autumn Splendor into my carryon, that is!)
