ABC Halloween

Happy Monday!!!!

Thanks for all the comments and emails about the Midnight Watch, I was blown away.
It makes me want to stitch, stitch, stitch
So....


I finished ABC Halloween by Lizzie*Kate last night
I waited this morning to get a better color of the linen
not the case...




This is more the true color taken inside...


30ct Witches Brew w/ Crescent Colours








I almost to forgot to show this Halloween finish. It was intended for the retreat exchange, but I wasn't that happy with it.

Halloween Costume freebie by Birds of a Feather




I used scrap book paper to line the inside of the paper mache box, after painting it black

Have a super duper work week

Happy Stitching!!!!
