This has been a very busy summer and fall is not slowing down.   Did not get August, September ornaments done.   Love seeing all the cute ornaments.

Playing Catch Up

Hello - it's been quite some time since I've posted.  I've been stitching, but my computer is so slow, it takes forever to post.  Here's my ghost for May! From JCS Halloween issue 2012.  This one was fun to make!

Pat's August & September Finishes

Here is my August "Own Choice" finish:

 

I chose Blackbird Design's All Dressed Up

from their Trix or Treat booklet.

40-count Heritage linen,

threads are mostly the recommended overdyes.

 

And my September "Halloween Words" finish:

 

This is again from the BBD Trix or Treat booklet,

same linen, but the thread is Gloriana Charcoal.

 

My Halloween tree looks fabulous with nine new ornaments!

I think I'll kit up October's Owl today!

 



Jo's August Finish

I missed July as I was busy stitching my cousin's wedding sampler.  Pop over to my blog if you want to see the most amazing wedding cake ever!

This month I decided to stitch a nice small design to make sure I was able to complete it.

Here is Julia Lucas' Trick or Treat from Just Cross Stitch Hallowe'en Special 2013:

They are nearly all beads and great fun to stitch.  I have decided to make my ornies into little open topped bags and put chocolates in each one on our Hallowe'en tree.  We are having a Hallowe'en tree for the first time this year.  I'll try find something suitable or I might just go into the field and chop a branch off a tree!!

September is Hallowe'en Words.  I wrote down some notes at the beginning of the year so I'll have to check them out and see what I thought of for that one.

Some of my finishes for the year

It doesn't look like I'm going to get a new ornie done this month.  Actually, I haven't even begun it yet and have other projects lined up for the rest of August.   But with Halloween quickly approaching, I have taken some time to ornamentify a few of them.  I hope you enjoy them.

Pat's July Spider

Itty Bitty Kitty - Halloween

by Sweetheart Tree

The silver flower beads came with the chart.

I purloined the spider button

from a Frankenstein chart which I didn't stitch.

It's cute, but not "me."

I may give this one away.

No ornament for July.  It has been a very busy summer.  Hope to stitch my August ornament, Witch Hat by Erica Michaels 2005.
