Halloween exchange rec'd, OMG

I rec'd my HOE Halloween Exchange package from Lynn B. on Saturday. OMG! Lynn really spoiled me. Her stitching is gorgeous and Lynn also made a polymer clay witch hat floss holder and a couple clay pins too. WOW! i couldn't get a good pic of the pins, hopefully Lynn will have a good one i can get from her. She stitched me a needlebook, a pinkeep with my initial K as well.

Thank you soooooooooo much Lynn!!!!!

Halloween.....................

Well the title says it all. All i have pics of today is Halloween designs and just appropriate since Halloween is next week already. I can't believe it is almost the end of October already. We have finally turned the AC off here in Arizona, finally for the last time. Just a few days ago it was 100 degrees outside. UGH! But it seems to be cooling down and hopefully will stay.
My first finish i have to share is one of my Fair & Squares i received last year from Marie P. for the Halloween Round. I just "finished" it the other day into a pinkeep. Thank you Marie!


Halloween by La D Da was stitched by Michele on a 30ct (halloween) green linen. i finished this one into a pillow for her. I love how it turned out. It lovingly sat on my mantle with my halloween pillow for a couple hours while i finished the next pillow for her as well. "Wicked" by PrimitiveBettys (free chart). I had also stitched this one and finished our's together. Mine is stitched on the orange fabric and Michele's is the tan fabric. They both have a black fabric on the back.

Back from the Framers

This past weekend i picked up 2 pieces i had taken in to be framed.

Introducing, Miss Mary Mack by La D Da. I stitched her on a piece of hot pink evenweave by Silkweaver using Needlepoint Inc black silk. I love how she turned out.


And here is Earth Sampler by Primitive Needle. I stitched this one on 40ct V. Autumn Gold using the called for WDW and GAST. This was a very fun stitch as well and LOVED how this one turned out too.


I used Sandy at The Attic Needlework Shop here for the framing. I went to the framing frenzy where you get 20% off and she has the choice of frames etc. you just choose if you want glass or not and have been more than satisfied every time.

Ghouls Night Out

Just a quick run by here. I stitched up the freebie "Ghouls Night Out" by The Sampler Girl yesterday and finished it into a pinkeep tonight. I stitched it on 30ct Guacamole linen using DMC. I left off the zig zag border, as i was indecisive on what color to use and decided i liked it without the border anyways. LOL I used straight pins with different beads added to them all around the outside.
