Halloween Snaps

I thought I would post some pictures of stitched Halloween project done by me over the years. Hope you enjoy!!

This was a Freebie from years ago. Can't remember designer. I purchased button of the witch on a broom and the frame was used for an old Mill Hill Design, I never finished stitching.

These pillows have been stitched for years. The Don't Bug Me and Bug Off Baby are Lizzie Kate Freebies. I stitched them on 7 count Black . The Pumpkin Fever pillow was a Lizzie Kate Kit. The Spider is a chart from Fanci That. The first thing I ever stitched with Gentle Arts Sampler Threads.

This is perhaps my favorite !!! This was a chart from Hillside Samplings Designs. I purchased it and all the supplies from Deb at Stitches N Things Shop. I still have some of that green chenille slime. I just love the color. I still see this chart sometimes on Ebay.

This is a Favorite too ! By designer - Twisted Threads. Listen Honey.... Series. I had it stitched for a long time. Even had the Mat cut for it.. I happen to be in Wal-Mart one day and spotted this frame on clearance for $3.00. Rest is History... LOL

This is my Black Glitter Tree. Excuse Zoe's high chair. That is The Queen's Chair. LOL I know you can't see them... But there are 2 black mice with those birds. I love them. Tree came from Home Goods Store about 2 years ago. I went in the other day and there Halloween stuff had all been picked over or broken. Nothing I seen I could live without.

That is the end of my little show.... Hope it got everyone in the Halloween Spirit!!!

Till Later.......

More Halloween in July

Hello everyone .... I have been stitching on this new Halloween Ornament. This one is stitched on 18th Century Rook linen with DMC and specialty threads. The chart had the purple back stitch in the eyes as just DMC #333. I added Purple Blending filament to it. I think it gave it some sparkle. If you know me.. The more sparkle the better. I am chugging along to get these finished for my Halloween Tree. I am thinking the tree I got at Home Goods Store may be a little small. I may have to look for a bigger black tree for these ornaments... I also have the charts for the Scary Acorns which is also by Cricket Collection Designs. They may fit my black glitter tree better.

Josh did his Workshop at Lowe's yesterday. Here is his picture:

This is Raeanne , Chip, Joshua, and Zoe. He made an UFO with a blinking light. He goes to Lowe's twice a month and to Home Depot once a month. He is all the time building something.

Well.. I have a fever again. Started getting sick last Sunday. got better as the week went on. Then again this morning I awoke with headache. Now I have a swore throat and ear ache again. Checked for fever. Temp was 100.8.. That is also the outside temperature. LOL I think it is hotter than 100 outside and hubby is crazy! He is outside riding that lawn mower around. With this Hot Temp, I don't care if the grass ever gets cut.

I also let all the flowers in my pots die. Murder by no water! I have a green thumb, but not in this heat. Nothing could save them. Sun burnt flowers... They turned brown and the leaves looked burnt. I will give them a good burial in October when it cools some. Or just maybe by then... they will fit into my death Halloween scene. LOL Till Later.....
