Witchy Washy

2011-11-24T07:39:00.001-08:00

I have a Halloween finish :) I finished Witchy Washy. I started this 2 years ago in February. So I am glad it is finished. Here is the picture. My cat's tail broke and the spider didn't look good on it so I left it off :)

Fun Witch!

2011-11-13T20:56:00.000-08:00

Witch pattern by Kissycross. It was

fast and easy. I changed the colors so

you could see the stitching under her breast.

I had fun stitching her.

I am still stitching away on this.

Finishes!

2011-09-22T14:23:00.000-07:00

So here's what I've been doing for the last 2 months:

Quothe the Raven Nevermore!
My Pretties-Plum Street Samplers
36ct Vt. Basketweave-LL
Silks

I started Nevermore right after the Witchy Brew. I have yet to finish this into something, but it will probably be a flat hanging. After that came this (I'm on a roll!):

Haunted Holler
the Stitcherhood
14ct Lite Fiddler's Aida
DMC

This came out so nice. It looks so much better in person. A fun stitch. As to what I'll finish it as, who knows?! Now that I think about it, I might make into a pillow, with some Fall or Halloween fabric on the bottom. The next design isn't exactly scary but maybe the raven adds a touch!

Blessed Be
Plum Pudding Needleart-freebie
28ct I have no idea linen
DMC

Right now I have it cut down and pinned to backing fabric, ready to be sewed into a hanging pillow. And here's what I just finished today:

Magick Spells
the Stitcherhood
14ct Lite Fiddler's Aida
DMC

I like the cat; he looks positively terrifying with that grin!

I'm going back to the My Pretties chart from PSS to stitch up the Welcome design. The model has been made into a pillow with what looks like black velvet on the bottom with a tag added on. It gives it a prim look, which I like!

LK Halloween Rules

2011-07-25T15:19:00.000-07:00

I am stitching on the Top Border now.

Two finishes

2011-07-20T11:15:00.000-07:00

Hi all!

I have finally finished the Witch on a Broom:

Doesn't she look great? All that backstitching wasn't though! I see that Hobby Lobby is already selling Halloween fabric; so I'll get the fabric for the backing for a pillow. Also finished is Witchy Brew:

The same magazine that the Witch on the Broom came from also has this design:

I have everything for it but I already have all my Halloween stitching planned out. I'll stitch this design when I've stitched the other things.

Have a great afternoon!

a finish and a new start

2011-07-18T20:38:00.000-07:00

I finished It's Halloween by The Drawn Thread

and I started LK Halloween Rules.

Halloween is 4 months away!

2011-06-25T16:18:00.000-07:00

You're welcome!

Nothing like a little reminder. I have finally broken away from several new un-spooky starts to work on my Witch on a Broom, and to start Witchy Brew:

I will be backstitching her, the broom, and kitty once the border is done. This is gonna make a cute pillow. And finally, here is Witchy Brew, missing more words, more cup and the ghost:

After I have these two designs done, I'm thinking of stitching some Halloween ornaments from the last years JCS Halloween magazine and some freebies that I have. I can't wait to get my hands on that JCS Halloween book that's coming out in September. I see at least one ONS that's offering a pre-order for it.

Hope your weekend is going great!

Witches Riding By

2011-06-06T12:23:00.000-07:00

Here is my latest spooky finish, Witches Riding By from Lavender Wings. This was stitched as charted using DMC floss on the recommended fabric 36 count Sand Edinburgh linen.

Halloween Chart Sale!

2011-06-01T17:04:00.000-07:00

For those of us that don't have enough Halloween charts already (and we KNOW who we are, so I don't need to start naming names. .lol), Everything CrossStitch has put all of their Halloween offerings on sale, giving us slowpokes the needed time to complete our projects by the time October rolls around! Now how thoughtful is that??

I've already found several that I don't already have, that I can't live without. .how about you?

1 over Nightmare

2011-05-30T10:21:00.000-07:00

Hi all!

Hope this Memorial Day is finding you all thinking of all those great men and women who have served and died in service to this great nation of ours!

Onward to stitching news! I have been stitching on Winifred the Witch until I got to the 1 over for the eyes and the mouth. I'm getting my butt kicked by the 1 over..hence the title of this post! I have so butchered the eye area that I got discouraged and put Winifred down. Here she is:

That left eyebrow went well and then things went downhill stitching the eyelashes and the eye. Once I buy a new pair of glasses, I will return to her. The next spooky project up next is this:

It's so cute! I have to buy one skein of GAST Blackboard but I have the fab and other threads for it. And I checked...there are no 1 over on this one!!

Have a great 4-day week!

Trick or Treat

2011-05-02T12:52:00.000-07:00

This is my latest halloween finish. Trick or Treat from Shepherd's Bush. This project came as kit. It is stitched on 32ct lambswool linen.

El Dia de los Muertos

2011-04-13T14:43:00.001-07:00

This is El Dia de los Muertos by Monsterbubbles from the 2010 JCS Halloween Issue. I wanted a washed out fabric, so I used Silkweaver Expressions Desert Sky. I also changed some of the colors to what I had in my stash. I've promised that as soon as I finish it into something that my youngest son can have it.

Spells for sale!

2011-04-13T08:23:00.000-07:00

Here is that JCS Halloween '10 ornament that I SAID I was going to start and post a pic. That was quite a while ago! :) At any rate, here she is:

This is an easy stitch. After I finish this, my next project is going to be a cute design by Witchy Stitches called Witchy Brew. I will post a pic when I start it.

'Til next time, have fun stitching!

Halloween Streamer

2011-04-03T18:15:00.000-07:00

This is by Little River Designs and I am hoping to finish it this month.

finished Poof Hat

2011-04-01T21:22:00.000-07:00

by Ursula Michael. Done on 28 ct Monaco.

Jack O Lantern

2011-03-29T16:15:00.000-07:00

Jack O Lantern from the 2010 Halloween Just Cross Stitch Issue by Casey Buonaugurio.

This was a quick stitch and I really like how it turned out. I stitched it on a Silkweaver Solo.

Halloween Cross Stitch 11

2011-03-22T17:34:00.000-07:00

This is Halloween Cross Stitch 11 by the Floss Box.

It's stitched on a Silkweaver Solo.

Poof Hat progress

I was really hoping to finish this in February and now I am shooting for a March finish. Poof Hat by Ursula Michael.

Witches Wheel progress

2011-03-05T07:31:00.000-08:00

Hi everyone!

I wanted to show my progress on one of my 2011 starts. This one has been a lot of fun so far. Having no color changes definitely makes it an easy stitch. I have a lot of beading coming up at the end, though - so it'll balance out in the end.

This is Witches Wheel by Glendon Place. I'm stitching it on the same fabric as the model - 32ct Solar by Picture This Plus. I'm aiming to have it done by Halloween this year, and may just get there with how fast the stitches are developing. This photo's only at about 10 hours in!

Thanks for looking,
Measi

All Hallow's Eve is done!

2011-03-04T14:14:00.000-08:00

Finally, I can move onto something else!

Designed by Notforgotten Farm Designs, stitched on 14ct Fiddler's Light aida with DMC. My next start will be a design from this past years' JCS Halloween issue. I bought it as a kit from Martha Pullen. It will be fun! I will load a pic when I start it.

Hope you all have a great weekend!

New to the Group and I have a Finish

2011-02-24T20:38:00.000-08:00

Thank You so much Karen for letting me join. My name is Linda and I have been stitching on and off for 30 years now. I have only been blogging for a few months now and I have really loved it. I also joined a few groups to make some extra friends and see all the other projects being done. I just finished a project called Halloween Moon by Brown Studios. It was a fun, fast and easy project to stitch that I think came out pretty good.

Happy Stitching Everyone

Linda

Update

2011-02-19T07:41:00.000-08:00

Morning all!

I want to thank everyone for welcoming me to this SAL. Thank You!

Onto business-I'm just about finished with All Hallow's Eve. I've made some progress but not a whole lot:

I don't know if I mentioned it, but there is supposed to be a row of pumpkins and vines below the numbers: I've decided to not stitch it. I'll just add the border like that at the top. I may add a spider charm to this, maybe to one of the keys just to add that touch of spookiness, which will be lost without the pumpkin row.

Well, it's raining cats & dogs right now, changing to snow later; perfect day to stay inside and stitch. Actually, I'm working on a woolfelt table runner with fall leaves on it. I will stitch afterwards!

Have a great weekend, everyone!

Thine is the Trick and the Treat

2011-02-16T21:00:00.001-08:00

Here is my start on Thine is the Trick and the Treat by Prairie Moon. I started this back in January (16th i believe) and only worked on it a couple days. Almost finished with the first page out of 6. I really need to pick it back up and finish up page 1 and then move forward. I really really like this one, very simple and enjoyable to stitch.

Thank You Karen..

2011-02-08T12:03:00.000-08:00

for allowing me to join this fun SAL! I'm Shelly and my favorite holiday is Halloween. I'm the divorced mom of a teenage girl and I attend college part-time. I've been stitching for about 12 years and I'm addicted! Below is what I'm working on right now, in between homework and studying:

All Hallow's Eve

14ct fiddlers lite aida

Notforgotten Farm Designs

I'm doing the 'up for a challenge' stitching and this design is one of my UFO's that I began working on about 4 years ago. Isn't that a great tree?

If the Broom Fits Fly It!

14ct aida

the Cross Stitcher Oct. '03

I have the border and the backstitching left to do. I think I'll finish it as a pillow. Below is a pic of a pillow that I stitched up and finished:

Matilda the Witch

16 or 18ct black aida

Cross Stitch & Needlework mag

This was hard work for me because I used metallic threads on the border (it kept unraveling on me), and finished it by sewing the black cord on. The backing is the green check fabric in the pic. I still have the pattern and might make another for this upcoming Halloween.

I'm so glad I found this blog. I checked it out from the beginning and enjoyed seeing everything all of you have stitched. I've been adding to my stash and a good portion of it is spooky stuff!

Have a great stitchy day!

Shelly

Witchy Washy progress

2011-02-02T07:59:00.000-08:00

It's been a while since I posted - I got wrapped up in ornament stitching for the holidays for months! But I've made some progress on Witchy Washy in the last week - the skirt is finally done!

I'm so glad to be able to take a break from the black. For some reason I'm really having trouble keeping even tension with the Black Crow thread.

I also stitched the line across to the left and added the clothespins. I'm planning to get the socks stitched before I put this piece to the side for a couple weeks.

Thanks for looking!

Well as the First day of the New Year has almost transpired I have started some new projects. Love guilt free January. So for my Halloween designs I started 2009 Boo Club, Spooky Welcome by Stoney Creek, and Haunted Hotel by Mill Hill. Here are the pictures. Can't see too much stitching on them yet but they will get worked on. Have a great New Year

Ready To Carve

You are so Bootiful

Designs by Lisa

I left the words off of the design and used Wisper for the witches hair and Fuzzy Stuff for the cat and the witch's warts. I also used an overdyed floss for the border and stitched it in Smyra crosses. The fabric is 28ct Monaco that I dyed.

Quick update

2010-08-04T10:31:00.000-07:00

Hi, my name is Sharlene and I LOVE Halloween. :) It's my favorite holiday. Here are a few things I've stitched; I have LOTS more I plan on doing and can't wait to share with you all...

a finish

2010-07-23T11:20:00.000-07:00

Mill Hill Treats Collage. I finished this 2 weeks ago and forgot to post a pic.

Halloween Icons

2010-06-26T13:31:00.000-07:00

This is Halloween Icons by Birds of a Feather. I decided to stitch them all together on one piece of fabric, a Silkweaver Solo. I used Smyrna cross stitches for the borders and the pumpkin leaves. I wish BOAF was still designing, I really like their designs.

Witches Riding By

2010-06-21T10:27:00.000-07:00

Last week I made a start on my latest Spooky Stitch, Witches Riding By from Lavender Wings. You can see the design here. I'm stitching this on 36 count linen, as recommended.

New member saying hello

2010-06-17T06:29:00.001-07:00

Hi all!

I joined a couple months ago as I was just getting started on my current Halloween piece - I wanted to have a bit more progress before I posted. :)

Anyway, to introduce myself - my name's Melissa. I go by Measi online. I'm 35, married, and live in Rhode Island. I've been stitching for nearly 25 years now, although I've had a lot of spurts and lulls in my stitching along the way. Halloween is by far my favorite holiday, and I have a bunch of different holiday-themed projects in my stash. :) I keep a personal blog of my stitching progress and random life chatter.

I'm working Raise the Roof's Witchy Washy:

It's moving along well. I'm using the recommended hand-dyed floss, so I'm being good and stitching each X individually. It's a bit slower, but the results are wonderful.

I have two other projects kitted up and will start one of them upon my next finish. One is Witches Dance by Lavender Wings, and the other is Sleepy Hollow by Glendon Place (both of which are gorgeous).

Nice to meet you all!

Haunted Hideaway on 13th Avenue

2010-04-26T09:25:00.000-07:00

Here is my most recent spooky finish. Called 'Haunted Hideaway on 13th Avenue' it is one of last year's Secret Needle Night projects from The Silver Needle. I stitched this as charted. However, I added the ghosts in glow-in-the-dark floss and gave the cat glow-in-the-dark green eyes.

The ghosts are based on the ones from Just Nan's Fraidy Frog which was a chart in last year's Just Cross Stitch Halloween issue.

Mill Hill Treats Collage

2010-04-25T19:52:00.001-07:00

Today's progress went well on Mill Hill Treats Collage. I am adding the beads and I did see where I missed some cross stitching on the bottom left corner, so will do that next Sunday. I am hoping to finish this next Sunday.

a little kitty

2010-04-22T10:30:00.001-07:00

I haven't done much Halloween stitching lately, but here are a few smalls--a freebie from Primitive Betty, and a BBD stocking from the 'Tis Halloween booklet. Weather is starting to heat up here and I am already wishing it was fall!

P.S. does anyone know if Moon Witch from Primitive Needle is still available as a freebie anywhere? I have been looking but can't find it.

This is Mill Hill Treats Collage. Most of the cross stitching is done and have to add the beads.

Moon Witch

This is a freebie from the Primitive Needle. I stitched it over-one on Sugar Maple Fabrics Petunia Patch. I didn't have the called for threads, so I picked my own and used Dmc, Dmc glow-in-the-dark, and Needle Necessities floss.

Thanks for letting me join!

Thank you to Karen for letting me join your great SAL. :)
I have one little Halloween stitch going on right now. It's Checkers the Pumpkin. I have been neglecting him and want to get back to him.
Here's what he will look like. So far he's only a few stitches.

From Epic Stitching

I also have two Halloween samplers that I will start at some point... the new Halloween Sampler by Cherished Stitches and Counting Bats from Just Nan.
Looking forward to seeing what everyone is stitching and to joining in!

Open House

2010-03-21T11:17:00.000-07:00

This weekend I finished Open House from The Cross-Eyed Cricket. This is stitched as charted with the recommended DMC floss on 28ct lilac cashel linen.

My next spooky stitch will be this one.

From Lavender Wing this is called Witches Riding By. It is stitched on 36ct linen with two strands of floss. Has anyone done this design? as I wonder if two strands of floss will make it look bulky.

Witchy Washy

2010-03-09T14:24:00.000-08:00

Here is an updated picture of Witchy Washy :) I do have a lot more done on it as I'm now on the other side. My kitty button's tail broke but it still looks good. I didn't care for the spider button on it so I left it off :)

LK Boo Club Spiders

2010-03-07T20:24:00.000-08:00

I stitched quite a bit on the border and almost finished Spiders.

Lk Boo Black Cat

2010-02-28T19:39:00.001-08:00

I finished another section today. LK Black Cat from the Boo Club. These are so much fun to stitch and quick.

Small Cushions

2010-02-28T08:16:00.000-08:00

I finished these just before Christmas last year....and I just realised I'd not posted them! Tis the witching hour here, so it is a quick post....before I forget again! I'll come back and edit to add the necessary info at a more reasonable time!!!!

Witchy Washy

Finally I am stitching my true holiday that I absolutely love. I started Witchy Washy for the Stitching Olympics that we are doing as a group on 2muchxs yahoo group. The idea is to start and finish it during the Olympics. Here it is so far: I'm really not sure if I am going to get it done in time but I am loving stitching this. Did get fustrated with the tree I ended up ripping it out at least 5 times but now it's right lol. Glad I'm using dmc. It is stitched on 36 ct 2 over 2 Hypnotic by SMF

Mill Hill

2010-02-21T20:05:00.000-08:00

I normally stitch on LK Boo Club but I was hoping to finish this in february. It won't happen since I had a late start today and then had to frog some of it.
This is Mill Hill Treats Collage.

LK Boo Flip It progress

2010-02-14T19:46:00.000-08:00

Another Sunday and another Halloween day. I stitched more of the border and started Black Cat. Hoping to finish Black Cat next Sunday. Anyone else stitching Halloween pieces?

Treats is done

2010-02-07T20:00:00.001-08:00

I finished Treats of the LK Boo Flip Its. Does anyone know if you can buy the buttons or charms separate if you are stitching from a used chart?
Next Sunday will be more stitching on the border.

a finish and a new start

2010-01-19T19:52:00.000-08:00

I finished Halloween Fairy tonight. I had it finished a week ago except for one color of the beads. So a friend picked them up for me and mailed them. I received them today and couldn't wait to finish this piece. I started it in July last year.
This past Sunday I started the LK Boo Flip Its. I will be stitching on this every Sunday til it is done.

Here we go a haunting

2010-01-04T10:17:00.001-08:00

This is my first finish of 2010. 'Here we go a haunting' by Shepherd's Bush I started on New Year's day and finished it at quarter to nine on the second of January. I also have the matching scissor fob. The limited edition box makes the whole project that little bit more special.

Hope everyone has a great 2010!

Halloween Fairy progress

2010-01-03T19:33:00.001-08:00

I am getting back into my stitching rotation after working on RRs and exchanges for a few months. Today is Halloween day for me and so I pulled out Nora Corbett's Halloween Fairy. I have a little bit of backstitching left and then add the beads. I am hoping to finish it next Sunday.

Another Girls' Night Out

2009-11-22T06:35:00.001-08:00

Here is my latest spooky finish. 'Another Girls' Night Out' from Just Nan. Stitched as charted, with the exception of the letters, which I did in black and not purple, my error! The fabric is 28ct Cashel Linen, Light Mocha. This piece is a gift but I will be doing it again in the future as a gift to me!

Halloween Fairy

2009-11-15T19:29:00.000-08:00

Today I stitched on Nora Corbett's Halloween Fairy. I am hoping to have her done at the end of the month.
