I hope you're enjoying the Summer Jam celebration and free limited pattern. (If you haven't downloaded your copy yet, see this blog post.)

This week you have a chance to win one of two more Summer Jam Kits through this blog post. (I've already given away 2 on Instagram, 2 on Facebook, and I'll be giving away 2 more through my newsletter next week.)
I want to hear about your favorite October House design that you've stitched! If you haven't stitched an OHFA design yet, tell me which one you're planning to/are excited about stitching in the near future. Leave a comment on this post to be entered for a chance to win. Please don't use the "G" word (you know.... giv. a. way.) in your comment. You must be at least 18 to win, so that I'm allowed to ask for your mailing address.
So let's hear all about your stitching!
I have completed Forget Me Knot and Friendly Blooms. I’m currently working on Deck the Halls. I love your patterns and the colors that you use in your designs. Most of them remind me of a special person or a memory. Forget Me Knots for my grandmother. White sheep for my aunt. Summer Jam brings back memories of picking strawberries and making jam with my cousins. I look forward to completing more of your patterns. Thanks so much.
Dear Robin, thank you for the opportunity! I bought your “Be a Cheerful Giver” pattern this year and recently mailed it to my cousin in the Philippines. It’s lovely and I think she will enjoy it ❤️
God bless,
Viola
This is such a sweet design, thanks so much. I have Summer Faire in my “can’t wait to start” pile and they will look great together.
I love this design but also the one called Lead a quiet life and have wanted to make it for awhile!
Your new autumn additions to your Row and Faire series are a must have. Love all your designs. Keep them coming. Happy end of summer.
I had not seen your designs before until I watched Helen D. on YouTube (flosstube channel). I am rather in love with your new Pumpkin Faire and all those other Faire series…. Summer Jam is adorable.
Love your designs 💕 Such lovely colors – the deep red of Strawberry Faire has to be my new fav, but Love and Joy still has a place in my heart. Looking forward to those oranges! Any new samplers ? Those are my tried and true -
All of your designs are beautiful. I am looking most forward to stitching Pumpkin Faire. 😄
I just kitted up tomato row and I can’t wait to start it! I’m going to stitch it and then turn it into a project bag for all of my tomato stitching projects! Thank you so much for all of your designs….they are fantastic! I love the faire series also! ❤️
I love them all, but the knitting ones hold a special place in my heart because knitting is my first love! It’s always great to combine your favorite crafts!
I have a couple of charts in my stash, but haven’t stitched one yet!
I haven’t stitch one yet loving your designs, please put my name in the hat. Thank you very much for all you do
This is a great pattern and it really Fits in well with all of the people that are making jam and jelly these days. I love the finish of it too with the quilting.
I love this cute little freebie and am eyeing All Is Calm…All Is Bright! So sweet! 🍓
I would love to win this giveaway! Summer jam is my jam!
I stitched Strawberry Faire earlier this year and it is one of my favorite finishes.
My favorite design that I’ve stitched is the knitting themed scissor fobs. I made them as Christmas presents for my knitting group one year and they were a big hit.
I don’t know exactly why but I am in love with your whimsical “White Sheep” design and hope to stitch it before I die 😅 Thank you for this perfect little freebie😍 I love strawberry jam and made 8 pints earlier this summer!!
Summer Jam is perfect for August. In most places, September means the start of Autumn, waiting for pumpkins and harvest. Not in Florida though. That is why I need to stitch all your designs. Makes you feel the seasons where there are none. Plan to get more of your designs. So far, I have stitched “Itch to Stitch” and am having it made into a little pillow. Thank you for your inspirational designs.
Summer Jam is super cute. Pumpkin row is adorable and I’m so ready for fall!!
I love the new pumpkin Faire, think that’s the name. Just being released next week or 2, pre-order is placed. Thanks for this cute chart!
I am excited to start Strawberry Faire in the near future! Love that huge strawberry!
I just completed “Sweater Weather” and finished it as a pillow for my BFF 🧶 she’s a knitter and absolutely loved it! Thank you for your wonderful designs and patterns 🩵🩵🩵
I how to stitch the design with the bee skeptical. I’m totally into these designs!
Strawberry Faire will be my first. Then I want to stitch Tomato Row!
I just started stitch my first October House Design. I’m starting with Honey Faire. 🐝
This is so beautiful. Reminds me of spending summers on the farm! 🍓🫐
My favorite October House design is Tomato Row. I so enjoyed stitching that. I have also stitched Strawberry Faire and love that design. I’m looking forward to stitching your September releases.

So far I have stitched Strawberry Faire and I love it. I have Honey Faire ready to go once I finished the stitch I’m currently working on. Can’t wait to get Pumpkin Faire!
I saw “September Morning” at a stitchy meet-up recently and knew I had to track your website down. I will be ordering “Lead a Quiet Life” soon because it’s a Bible verse I love; in fact, my cell phone cover has this very verse printed on it with pretty flowers around the border!
I chose to stitch Strawberry Faire to take part in the #strawberryservestitch SAL in July. It’s beautiful and I’m thrilled with it. My next chart from you is Honey Faire and I’m waiting for the threads I’m missing from WDW and CC to arrive at CreateNostalgia so I’m excited for those to arrive. I hope to display this one with my Honey of a Tiny Town pin drum. Thank you for creating such lovely designs 😊
I haven’t stitched any of your designs yet however I have in my stash deck the halls to do it for this coming Christmas and I am going to get love and joy. I absolutely loooove it. Thank you for your beautiful designs.
My favorite October House design so far is Strawberry Faire. Just love the colors and the design. I have two friends who saw my finish and had to get the patterns for themselves. And the project went to the top of their stash and was finished right away. So you know it was a hit! Love the Summer Jam offering and the project bag is so pretty!
I'm Robin, the designer behind October House. You've found my blog, where I ramble on about stitching and sewing and anything else that catches my fancy!
I love quiet colors, gentle stitches and making things by hand.

I’ve just discovered your patterns. So beautiful! I’m going to do tomato row as soon as I finish my current project. Thank you for the opportunity!
