Hallowe'en Ornie SAL in 2014

Following on from Lainey's last post where she regretted she could not continue running the SAL into 2014, I volunteered to do so as I have enjoyed it so much this year.  Lainey had done an excellent job running this SAL and the Christmas one too so it seems a nice Thank You to continue her work.

I have asked her to add me as an Admin for the blog so I can add people as contributors and amend the themes etc.  I have not yet heard back as I'm sure she is very busy over Christmas.

If you are all in agreement I will wait until 31st December and then set up a new Hallowe'en SAL Blog which you are all welcome to join!

Please leave a comment here giving your opinions and suggesting any themes you would like to see, including any favourites from this year.

Have a Spooky New Year!

Thank-you !

Thank you so much to each and every one of you who have taken part in the Halloween ornament Sal.  All the ornaments look wonderful.
Due to a number of my close family members being seriously ill this year my stitching has been non-existent and any internet time I've had has been very limited. I hope there will be someone who will continue the SAL in 2014.
Merry Christmas & Best Wishes for 2014!

Pat's December Ornament

 
Knotted Tree NeedleArt's Little Owl Sampler
from  the 2012 JCS Halloween Issue,
stitched on 40-count light orange linen
worked 1 over 2 with DMC floss.
 
I'm very happy that I have 12 new Halloween ornaments
for my Halloween tree...
 
 
This photo was taken in October,
when I had stitched only 10 of the ornaments.
This SAL was a great motivator for me
to add a bunch of ornaments to my collection!
