New Pattern!

Under The Garden Moon is coming out with a new pattern. What do you think? Here are some of the farmyard animals that I have been appliqueing lately. They obviously need some details added (eyes, legs on the chicken, details on the veggies, etc) but they are looking so cute I thought I would share some of what is coming. There will be more sneak peaks coming!
