Locked Blog should be taken care of

Hi All! I rec'd an email from blogger about the "locked blog" spam thing and requested the review and believe it has been taken care of. Hopefully noone will have any further problems. I know another blog had the same thing happen and once the review was requested it was done.

Couple of WIPS

Hi,

Here are a couple of my WIPS:


The first one is Pumpkin Patch by Prairie Schooler. I am stitching it 1 over 2 on 36ct. linen called Parchment from WDW using the recommened DMC floss. It is a very fun stitch.


This is called Boo by Charland Designs. It is from last year's JCS Halloween issue. I am stitching it on 32ct. linen called Boo from a company no longer in business (Dyeing 4 U) using DMC black and white for the eyes when I add them. It is stitching up very quick and alot of fun to do.

Happy Halloween Stitching.
April :)

Poor Jack

This is a freebie called Poor Jack from Just Nan. It came from The Silver Needle with an order for Scream House and it's bits and bobs. It is stitched as charted and measures 2" x 2" on 28 count Light Mocha cashel linen, the chart suggests you use Country Mocha but I didn't have any.

A new start! Mirabilia Halloween Fairy

I decided to start Mirabilia Halloween Fairy. I can't believe how quickly she is stitching up! This is progress basically from just Friday and Saturday stitching with friends. I'm using the kit but subbing the threads for her wings since I had 2 different dyelots in the kit (ugh).


I plan on a bit of a stitching marathon today so I'll be able to make a lot more progress!

Abandon Hope Wip


I wanted to make a spooky sign for Halloween, so I charted this. I'm still trying to decide on a border design. The skull is in Dmc glow-in-the-dark floss. The fabric is Monaco that I dyed. The skull is from this site: http://one.witchy.woman.tripod.com/
