something new

As I mentioned last week, I've been feeling like working on something fall/Halloween related. So I picked out several Halloween smalls to work on. This is actually the second I've completed/ started over the past few days. I finished one already but forgot to take a picture. Hopefully I can finish it and get it on my spooky tree before next Monday. This one if from a past issue of Just Cross Stitch's Halloween issue from Tracey Horner of Ink Circles on a piece of Silkweaver. I love it. :-) And it's been a great change and I hope to get one more stitched before I sit down and finish the small stash I have from the last couple of years.

Aoife (e-fa) says thanks for all the warm words. She is still basking in the glow. And so am I. We didn't make the draw for the next trial in the area so we have nothing upcoming until November 25th. I kinda wanted to strike again quickly after her success. But we will continue to practice, practice, practice!

Your rendition of this is a really special piece! I tried stitching it last year, but got nowhere. I think I can believe that there are some designs which we like, but which are incompatible for us to stitch.

But, loving your linen and fibers combo! :D

Cute Halloween small, and the fabric is very fitting for it. I'm regretting not getting the JCS Halloween ornament edition.

Great fabric choice. I have this one kitted up and sitting in my briefcase, but no stitching on it yet.
