Vampire


This is the vampire from Brooke's Books Spooky Critters II. I stitched him over one on fabric that I dyed. I plan on making him into a small ornament or a tag.

Hocus Pocus Pin Keep



Hocus Pocus by Lizzie Kate finished into a pin keep with beads. I can't remember the name of the linen and I used the recommended Week's threads for it. I want to start a pin keep basket of Halloween designs and this would be the first one. I think I may start Eek fob next. I saw that one finished on someone else's blog and thought it was too cute. I also got my fabric for Tombstone Spot's-that may be another new start too.

Happy Halloween!!!!!

"Dancing on the Moon" by Birds of a Feather
Stitched on 32 ct. sparrow w/WDW
"Boo name tag" by Bent Creek /finished as a flat fold



My sweet little Halloween grungy dolly arrived yesterday, signed and dated

I purchased her thru Trudy at http://lemonpoppyseeds.com/shoppes/psannabellesattic

Please be safe this spooky hallowen night!
