The season of autumn is a season of change. Summer gives us a last thrill with lovely late blooming heathers and chrysanthemums, fiery red and yellow leaves then cover the hillsides, while frosty mornings herald the coming of winter. This Autumn sampler stitched in sparkling gold with colours of violet, green and sky blue, the shades of a beautiful Victorian garden in late September. Included in the directions is a second colour scheme for those stitchers more at home with the traditional colours of late fall. This is the last sampler in a series including White Christmas, Child of Spring and Summer Dreams.
