EEK! Halloween?


Originally I was going to spend the two weeks of the Olympics stitching only in red, white and blue but that didn't last long.  I blame it all on the JCS Halloween Issue that comes out every year at this time.  Once I see that, I just want it to be fall!  My first finish from the 2012 issue is . . . .

"Eek!"  Designed by Michelle Lutzen of Stitch Kitty 
done on 32 ct Violet Mist linen with DMC threads

I have three others in the works but I also finished a kit from Shepherd's Bush  
"Creepy Cushion"
done on 32 ct Willow Linen using silk threads
This one is very pale in color but I absolutely love the design and want to try it a 2nd time with a different color scheme.

That's it for now and thank you for visiting.  I really do enjoy the comments and I'd like to send out a special thank you to all who left suggestions about framing pieces.  It was truly appreciated!  When my decision has been made and it's done, I will be sure to post a pic.

ENJOY THE OLYMPICS EVERYONE!  
Don't you just love watching the youth and energy and all that they have accomplished?!
