The New Stitching Is Wonderful!!

Happy Day Everyone!

I've been out of town for most of September and the last part of August, so I am just now playing catch up!

I LOVE what everyone has done since I've been gone! It was SO cheery to log on here and see so many BEAUTIFUL projects!! You put me all to shame! lol

Unfortunately, the lighting in our motel room was very poor, and it was even worse in the clinic waiting areas, even when I tried using my clip-on light. I need to get one of those portable OTT lights, I guess.

It is SO good to be home again, and you are all inspiring me to ignore this pile of laundry that I just took out of the suitcases, and the stacks of mail piled on the table, to just sit down and stitch awhile. Such naughty, naughty influences you all are! lol

Wishing everyone a beautiful day, and please keep sharing your wonderful Halloween pieces! They are guaranteed smile boosters!!!

Boo

Boo by Sharon Pope
The fabric is a Silkweaver solo. The words are in glow-in-the-dark Kreinik. I also added some for the eyes of the cat and pumpkin.
I really like how it turned out and I just love the cat.

Hello

Hello everyone. My name is Terri and I am new to this group. I absolutely love halloween designs. I have almost kitted up the Lizzie Kate Double Flip its for Halloween. I also have in the Wings the Trick or Treat Fairy. Just have to get my supplies and pick my fabric. Here is a picture I have done back in 2001. I cannot remember what Magazine it is from either. I used the glow in the dark threads on this piece.
Thank you for letting me be a part of this community.

Prairie Schooler Ornaments

Hi Everyone,

I have been having great fun stitching the new Prairie Schooler ornaments from her Boo to You leaflet. Here are two that are stitched. I had previously stitched another 2 and they are on another post. I am stitching on the 5th one and then only have 3 more to stitch. When they are all stitched I am going to make them into ornaments and then put them on a wreath. I am so excited to get this completed.

I have been admiring everyone elses finishes. They are all wonderful. I can stitch Halloween all year around, as it is my favorite.

Back to stitching.

Happy Halloween Stitching
April :)

I had initally messed up on the finishing of my Spooky Tin needlecase and Mona Bost (the finisher for Lizzie*Kate) came to my rescue! *Whew* She did a fantastic job and it goes to show you do NOT attempt to finish something when you are tired! lol Lori
