It's June 4, 2009 and right now I'm roasting.  It's supposed to be Spring weather in New England, but it's hot. 

When I was growing up in New England we always had 4 seasons - my two favorites being Fall and Spring.  The Fall was always breezy and the air was always crisp.  Spring was always cheery and mild.  Winters were snowy and wet and Summer was just plain hot.  Now, it seems like we only have two seasons - winter and summer.  Oh, how I miss Spring and Fall.

In thinking about the seasons I couldn't help but think about Fall - my favorite season of all.  Not just because I LOVE the weather but, because that's when my most creative "mojo" is flowing.    For some reason my creative juices just love the Fall season. 

So, I decided that the "Instant Download E-Pattern" for the month of June for our Twelve Months of Sewing Club should be one of my favorite Fall e-patterns. I decided to select LW141LWOEP "Punky - Elmer's Little Scarecrow."

"Punky - Elmer's Little Scarecrow" is a 10" Victorian scarecrow doll who loves his nickname of “Punky.” He’s Elmer’s secret pal. Only Elmer can see him and talk to him. Punky likes Elmer but feels that Elmer keeps him from doing his job. After all, he is a scarecrow.

Punky’s face is embroidered and he has a cloth head and body. He has a lined vest, bow tie, fringed shirt which he wears out to cover his pot belly. He’s wearing pantaloons, black/white shoes, lined sculley cap and has raffia for hair. He has his wooden rake all ready for the leaves. Or, maybe he’s using it to swat those nasty crows.

“Punky - Elmer’s Little Scarecrow” loves his nickname of “Punky.”  But, he can't tell anyone his name or anything about himself.

Why? Because he’s Elmer’s secret pal.   You see - only Elmer can see him and talk to him.  

Punky likes Elmer quite a lot, but feels that Elmer keeps him from doing his job.   After all, he is a scarecrow. And his job is to scare away the birds and the crows not to spend all day playing with Elmer.

But, he likes playing with Elmer so he's learned how to charm his way around the birds and scarecrows. And, it actually is working.   Elmer is his friend. In fact, he's his best friend. Not only that, but he's his only friend.   So, he'll play along with Elmer as much as he wants. For he knows that if Elmer doesn't think about him he doesn't exist.

He has his wooden rake all ready for the leaves. Or, maybe he’s using it to swat those nasty crows.

Nope! Not Punky. His rake is all show. He is "The Charming Scarecrow" after all.

We hope you enjoy making "Punky - Elmer's Little Scarecrow."
